Which sanding bands on Amazon fit the dremel 3000? And is this dremel good for triming dogs toenails?

It really depends on what you are used it for. I have not used it much other than wood trimming and is a great tool for that. The sanding bands that came with would have been sufficient for me except i did have to purchase some extra sanding bands. As far as trimming dos toe nails I have purchased a electric dog toe nail clipper and it was just a dremel tool itself with a shield around. My dog don't like either so i have it done at the vets office. Sorry, hopefully this helps somewhat.

My father uses his to trim his dog's nails. He started doing this when they were young so they could become accustomed to the noise of the dremel. They are large English mastiffs with very thick nails, this makes quick work of them.

I use one to do my own toenails (they grow very thick and I thin them down). I caution you, the dremel causes your toenail to get HOT very quickly and the heat is painful. I would advise using dog nail clippers, and forget the dremel for dog nail applications. Clippers are quicker and as long as you don't hit their 'quick', it is also painless.

The shank on these bits is 0.0445" & will not fit a standard Dremel tool collet (0.125"). Dremel does makes an adjustable chuck that works nicely though. They may also sell smaller collets, not sure about this though.

Oh no, this blade is super sharp and I would never use these trimmers on a dog's nails. You could do serious damage because they are not arched to fit a dog claw. P.S I am a nail tech and I use a dremmel file on low while holding each claw very firm to prevent vibration. Make sure the dremmel file is spinning upward/outward and start with a little off every week. I have my boyfriend hold our beagles while we do this. There is also a "pedi paw" you can get and that works ok but I prefer the dremmel tool because it is electric and spins faster but it does get hot! Use cardboard file cylinder bits found at the beauty supply or online. Oh no, this blade is super sharp and I would never use these trimmers on a dog's nails.

hi Lucas, I just searched and found this, http://www.homedepot.com/p/Dremel-1-1-8-in-Bi-Metal-Flush-Cut-Blade-MM462/202074046?N=5yc1vZc23d. looks like dremel makes an flush cut blade. so im gonna say yes.

I don't know what is in the picture... but it was the same picture when I ordered the tool too. It is indeed a dremel-type tool, with a guard over the round file thing. Look at some of the other listings for "Peticure" for the correct picture. This one comes with a ton of extra files and has loads of power. I have small dogs, and use it on nearly the lowest setting. Does not overheat, seems to work really well... saves me spending the extra $10 to have the groomer grind her nails every time.

I just purchased this dremel as in my move, I have lost the one I had which worked great. My old one came in a Blue canvas carrying case but I do not know which one the dremel was. I am looking for one that is like it. It was cordless and variable speed. The 7700-1/15 does not have enough power to do the dog's nails and it takes forever to do one dog. Can any one help figure out which dremel is like my old one?

You can use any one of the attachments to sand the nail, the coarser the faster it will grind down. Be very careful, only grind enough so that the nail in not touching the ground when the dog is walking. I purchased the flex attachment for this same purpose. Works great, saves a lot of time and aggravation.

I'm doing the same thing as Thomas. I have a 200+ Lb Great Dane and his claws are way too big to fit in any pet nail clipper. So I sand them down gently with the sanding drum. The box has held up just fine for over 3 years. The box is good but it's the bits that are great. Oh and we have two different dremels and one cordless off brand and they fit all 3.

If you type in "dog" after you clicked on reviews you can see that there are people (including professional groomers) using these on nails on the low speed. I hope this helps. I am going to order one.

This is a standard size dremel bit. I use it on my daschunds (3) claws. It's very quiet and effective for trimming their nails/claws but I personally don't think it would be small enough for modeling. However, if you do decide to order it and it's not exactly what you are looking for you can return it.

We use the standard Dremel style sanding drum to trim dogs' nails- haven't tried it on humans.

Unfortunately I have no clue. I bought these to trim my dogs' nails and they are perfect for that. I hope someone else can help you.

Those are the WRONG BRUSHES for the 4000 (I have the same Dremel model 4000). You can ONLY buy the brushes directly from Dremel [which is stupid!] for the model 4000 (I've spoken to them). The part number of the brush set is 2610005646 (otherwise simply known as '5646' brushes), the code number is 1 (on the data sheet that comes with the tool). These brushes are a little wider than the conventional set of brushes for other models, such as the Model 300 (which are more square along the long axis [part #90930]), and that is why they will not 'seat' properly even though they go in the holes (with a little extra room). PLEASE pass this information on any time you hear of someone with the same model 4000 problem. Good luck and call Dremel at 1-800-437-3635 to order.

I've not used the 7700, so I'm not familiar with it. The dremel rotates horizontally. I have big dogs, so I usually trim their nails after a walk to burn off some energy first. They lay on their side w/me kneeling next to them to trim their nails. With my biggest dog (German Shepherd), I trim the nails on the feet on the paws she's laying on, then have her lay on her other side to do the same thing on the other 2 paws. The dremel has been a life safer. It's so much less stressful than a trip to the vet.

Gary, I'm not really sure. I'm fairly confident that you can get a valid answer by going onto Dremel's web site and contacting their customer support people.Pete

The instructions I received with the router table indicated that it would work with the 4000 series Dremel tool if you have an additional collet accessory. They mention that you can contact them to receive this accessory. Perhaps it comes with certain 4000 kits?

No, I recommend the Dremel engraver available on Amazon. They are not that expensive. The model numbers are 290-01 and 290-05. What you could do is go to Dremel's website and send them an email asking them. I have found them very helpful and they reply within a couple of days.
