You can get pretty cheap USA-made burrs off amazon and a few other sites. They're usually about 8-10$ a piece until you start getting into the huge ones. The price difference on burrs is so small that you might as well just skip the chicom stuff. And Benchmark seems to be selling chicom stuff, based on a few of their other items saying "Made In China" and no indication of country of origin on the burrs.
Also Weiler seems to make good wire brushes from what I have heard, in the USA. Milwaukee likewise sells USA-made wire brushes. I'm not sure if they're made by Weiler and just branded or not, but you can get them from HD for a similar price. Have not tried either myself though.
Well u know what they say about opinions.... 🤷🏼♂️ guess we’ll wait for the test to see who is right. Can you link the reviews saying their burrs are no good or as you put it “chicom.” I’d be interested in hearing what the complaints are. Thanks
@@BradsWorkbench Chicom = short for chinese communist (aka mainland china, as opposed to things made in taiwan or hong kong). Some chinese stuff can be quality, and I don't doubt that Benchmark may source decent items and perform good QC. But given the difference is so small it's a no brainer for me to just go straight for a USA burr. I always prefer USA-made as that is keeping people employed here. A lot of times the price differences are very very wide and makes it hard, but that's not the case for burrs.
@@BradsWorkbench To make up for the time spend on the negativity: Check michaelcthulhu's pizza cutter video at 5:23, he shows a neat setup you can do with a die grinder, burr, a piece of steel and a jawhorse to make it work like a router table for use on plate steel.
Good vid Brad. I'm def interested in the small 1 and 2 inch sanding discs as well as the belt sanding paper since I restore and refurbish old and antique axes. I'll be sure to look them up and see what they offer. Thanks for sharing and cheers to ya mate!
They’ve definitely got quite a variety to choose from on their site. Some stuff I’d never even heard of but they give you a description of the possible uses under each product as well
Great video thanks brother. I have one I keep away from everyone. I don't know who made it but I have used it for years. Those look like a pretty good quality. I use the two inch quick change more than my bigger grinder. I will have to check them out. Keep up the great work see you in the next video thanks again brother
Harden steel can be tricky because there are many types. Carbide burrs are good for fine detail work but for bulk removal i typically go with a 4x36 belt sander. There are various abrasives to choose from too. Annealing the steel is also a great option if your able to do so. There are way better craftsman than me on youtube but thats some basic info to at least point u in a couple directions I hope
Got a question on if the dremel tools with the birzs will work for my application. Working on a tractor Oliver model 70, the engine block ports the long oval ports have become infused with rust over the years that sat out in the weather. I don't got the money to take the engine out and bring it to a shop. Would any of these dremels cut away Rusty metal medium steel?
It can definitely take off rust. Just be careful you dont take off anymore than you want to and that the rust thats removed wont cause any harm to the engine. I'm not a mechanic tho, I only know how to fix the stuff I have been too poor to pay someone else to lol
Thanks for showing me what a die grinder does. its the offspring of a trim router and dremel. lol😆 Thanks for sharing that c.a. & baking soda as well. Informatively entertaining. 👍🏾
Cool. I have a couple of their burr bits, they sell some of them on Amazon too. They do make good stuff, the only thing is their shipping is a little high.
Did you ever compare the 2? Amazon the the ones in this video? I just got some Amazon ones and was woundering. Says they are the #1 best seller haha seemed like good reviews
These ones from benchmark abrasive have been top notch. Theres a budget brand on amazon that are also very good though called YUFUTOL. Let me know if u need a link
@@BradsWorkbench Bruce Dern is one of my favorite actors. He was in a lot of John Wayne movies and several Gunsmoke episodes. I build kinetic wind sculptures and I use schedule 40 3/4” stainless pipe to house the bearings and the pipe has to be bored for the bearings to go in there. I’ve tried 3 machine shops to do this and they just flat don’t want to do it. They hate working with stainless. I have a small Atlas lathe so put my pipe in the lathe and use a die grinder with a carbide burr bit and I am able to bore the pipe out for the bearings. I bought the carbide burr bit from eBay but think a better quality burr would last longer. So that is what lead me to your video.
@@BradsWorkbench I don’t have anything on the internet. Look up Mark White kinetic wind sculptures and that is similar to what I do. I sure enjoy building them. It is very frustrating at times. Especially balancing. I am going to contact the company in your video and order the carbide burrs. One of the machinists that tried to bore them for was amazed that I could bore them. I told him with a lathe and a die grinder turning at the same time the metal has to go somewhere. I have to stop and check my bore often. Otherwise I take a chance on the bore being oversized.

I don’t work with metal that much but these come in very handy working on my trucks and trailers.
What do you use them for on ur trucks/trailers?

I need some Rotary burrs they look good. There flap disks are really impressive
Yes they are! I’d really like to get my hands on some of the curved ones but they are pricey
Hello my friend. good information about woodworking bits and sanders. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, these are meant for metal but could be used on wood sometimes
@@BradsWorkbenchYes, you are right. But I usually use them on wood. thank you.

I need those carbide burs ASAP, and that baby flap disc is so cute😂
They are pretty dope. I dont know how i worked metal before having burrs
Looks like I need to get some of these for my shop!
Workbench With Dad very handy to have

I use the two inch quick change more than my bigger grinder. I will have to check them out. Keep up the great work see you in the next video thanks again brother
Lol it’s like how I hide the good drill bits at work because if I don’t someone will chuck them into a cordless drill and burn them up instantly
I'm kind of new to metal works,etc I would like to find something that could possibly grind down hardened steel what would you recommend for that?

Those drill heads would be great for cylinder head porting
Chemical Spore the burrs or the quick locks?
@@BradsWorkbench burrs
Thanks for showing me what a die grinder does. its the offspring of a trim router and dremel. lol😆

Yup die grinders are very handy to have around.
Having to right stuff is a good thing with the need comes
I’m definitely learning that as I get older
Cool. I have a couple of their burr bits, they sell some of them on Amazon too. They do make good stuff, the only thing is their shipping is a little high.
Yea I linked a few of their products from hamazon. At least that way you can get free shipping if you’re a prime member 👍🏼
Thanks for the testing and review buddy!!
All for u sweetie cakes
Brads Workbench 😘
Nice Stuff Bud👍
Goin back in the history books now lol
Just a little binge watch...
@@SteveC38 lol, well i def apperciate it bud
What’s the best Dremel accessory to sharpen a Commercial hedge trimmer
Couldnt say but i sharpen scissors at home with diamond files. Might be worth trying 🤷♂️
Man I love the flap discs I picked up off instagram! good information
They are pretty damn good
I use a lot of abrasives. Always looking for quality wire wheels. Will take a look at their store.
I have used quite I few from super cheap to expensive and I’d say these are the best I’ve used thus far
Great demo. Thanks.
👍🏼
Did you ever compare the 2? Amazon the the ones in this video? I just got some Amazon ones and was woundering. Says they are the #1 best seller haha seemed like good reviews
I havent done a video but yes I do have some long shaft ones from hamazon and they seem to be right on par
Nice video. What's the best kind of burr bit? Carbide? I want a couple round ones to grind out spot welds. Thanks!
These ones from benchmark abrasive have been top notch. Theres a budget brand on amazon that are also very good though called YUFUTOL. Let me know if u need a link
What is an attachment I can get to widen holes?
The burrs are good or you can try a reamer. All depends on size of hole and material
Step bit?
Very good option as well if looking to REALLY open up a hole... reamers and burrs better for dialing it in
I need this
They will change the way u work
Hi Brad. Thank you.
Lance & Patrick.
