Dremel Tools was founded by Albert J. Dremel back in 1932.  He made his mark initially by patenting an electric razor blade sharpener which was a huge money saver in days preceding disposable razor blades.  Dremel, with his innovative genius, held a wide range of patents, and today his company is most noted for their rotary tools.  These rotary tools are enjoyed by both professionals as well as those who do crafting as a hobby.  Their flexibility, compact size, and light weight makes them versatile and usable for a wide range of different projects.
