I have two Dremel tools. One is a couple decades old and has "solidMade in China! , Save big money..

My old Dremel had much more constant speed under load, at any setting
of the speed control. The newer one, if you set it at a low speed, it
just stops when you apply the tool to the workpiece. I have confirmed
this with more than one Dremel of the same model. To control the speed
now requires a combination of setting the tool and then carefully
maintaining constant cutter force.
Any guesses about what's different? The motor, or the electronics?
It's as if Dremel lost a good design, and replaced it with something
that doesn't work quite as well.
