I have and occasionally use a basic variable speed dremel tool set. They are much harder to use than you'd think, the tool, unless very strongly held wants to walk and twist. I can not carve a straight line or follow a marked curve at all with one.
Also the bearings are not that great so that a lot of sideways tork will wear them out in a hurry. They're fancy and cute but over priced and over rated. I think you'll be much better off if you learn to use small hand tools, effectively. You're going to be working with smalll pieces, probably mostly of soft materials, and sawing, drilling filing sanding etc. doesn't take much effort and you can much more easilly keep track of what you're doing. If you can find someone who has a dremel, ask to try it in your hand and see just how hard it is before you spend money. Tom, the ex violin maker's apprentice.
