Default How do you break a dremel? (56K safe)

Well, apparently metal fatigue means something. The torque is not direct drive. It actually feeds through a spring to (I'm assuming) absorb sudden differences in load on the motor. Unfortunately, when the spring breaks.... the dremel is no longer as effective.



Well, at least I know what the inside of a dremel looks like, now.

P.S. Hopefully this pic is not as obnoxiously large as the previous pics.
