Milwaukee M12 Rotary Tool hack

[mooksimillians]

Milwalki will have them on the shelf soon if this gets out there enough.. good tip!

I use the same rotary tool. I'm definitely going to swap this out now! I hate the collet on the m12. The little teeth always get shifted out of place too. Have to smack the bit down inorder for the teeth to release.

After commenting on one of these videos about what a pain it was to change the sanding drums.Alovely man got back to me about this.
He actually asked me if I had a weird looking drum in my kit. This was a shared tool between me and my dad who has since passed away. He helped me distinguish what I was looking for. I had about 3 different ones and I just ignoring them.
I had two sanding Quick Change drums plus one gor a cutting wheel.
I have had such a nice experiences on YouTube with gentleman like this explaining something to me in a way that I could figure it out. So thank you to all the strangers out there. Who have given me a break, and helped.
My dad always bought the latest tools and I should have known better😅

I have most of my power tools Milwaukee but for the rotary tool I still had to stick with Dremel their speed adjusting and pen attachment is something I couldn’t pass on

Love this tool. My go to for cutting seized bearing off conveyors.

My old Dremel does the same thing. I don't use that spanner anymore. I just keep a pair of pliers close by, my Leatherman is usually hipside.

Made me order one as soon as I watched this, works wonders

Dremel also make a collar that replaces the black collar just below the bit that has the wrench built in, and because it's the same size you can use all the Dremel accessories like the 90 degree offset

The real fix is to not use the wrench to tighten the collet. Finger tighten on, finger tighten off, just like an angle grinder.

Great tip! 👍
Definitely gotta do this to mine, I use it all the time and I'm constantly losing that little wrench 🔧

Because of this short I bought both items at the same time and it work’s amazing. Thanks for the tip Jeremy

All the Demel collets ect. Are the same and interchangeable. Theres also a nose cone from dremel that has a wrench built into it that works nice

[taylorgunderson]

You can also replace the black collar on the tip of the tool with a dremal brand collar which comes with a built in wrench to the collar.

The Dremel keyless chucks still require using a small wrench or vide grips to undo sometimes because the vibrations of using the rotary tool cause the chuck teeth to move closer and closer until they bind and then you’re in the same boat as before.
I tried switching but found the same issue. It doesn’t matter how gentle you are snugging the keyless chuck up it will still (with continuous use) bind and require tools to take the mandrel/tool out of the chuck.
Keep your money and stick with what’s provided until it wears out and needs replacing then go town with whichever option you like, just know that you were warned.

You can use any wrench that fits so if you don't like the little one get a longer one at the same size...

milwaukee is great but sometimes they have too many features of the 10$ harbor freight equivalent

[anthonyconde]

Thanks for the that will make know making so much easier

First time I've seen one of your videos.. instant subscribe. Well done fellow traveling man 👊

[strangetamerx]

I used to have the rotary tool & sold it. No matter what collet I used it always came loose from the vibration of using the tool. I could tighten it as much as possible & it still happened. I love Milwaukee tools but this one I definitely prefer my dremel.

Dremal has a collar it's threads down as a grip but works as a wrench when u need
