Jimmy Buffit is an unknown quantity at this point
I have two rotarys now. One is the FEIN (CoastalTool.com) and the other is the Chicago Electric from Harbor freight. (That I assume dlw was referring to)

The Fein cost $300 and is a wonderful, lighweight tool.

The CE cost $24.99 (sale!) and is perfectly adequate, particularly for the weekend enthusiast. Invest in a better backing plate and use good pads. It is a good tool.

On the other hand, trust me, the Fein is to die for! If you use a rotary for an hour a day, this is the Bomb! Weighs about the same as the PC.
