So, the cut off wheels did the job? Good to know. I've found
Dremel cut off wheels to be handy for many tasks, like this.

Just keep in mind there are (2) different kinds of cutoff whiles
that fit the dremel tools.

The solid dark brown ones that often come with the tools, that have
no surface texture..and ones that look like miniturized fiberglass
wheels with an "embossed" grid..which is actually fiberglass that
holds it together.

The first ones..are fragile like glass. The second kind is quite
good.

Good ones:

They both have their place and it depends on your skill at doing fine
work.


What is the place for the incredibly fragile and break at a blink
wheels?

String cutting? As long as you dont put it down roughly?

They actually work very well if you keep side loads off them . I also
prefer the reinforced ones for most tasks , but there is a place in my
toolbox for both types .
