    Judy....I am new at posting here but I thought I would throw in my 2
    cents about the foot pedal. I have been using a sewing machine pedal
    for my dremel rotary tool for several years. It works great, however
    I have noticed that I don't get as high of rpms when rumming the
    dremel through the pedal (with dremel speed permanently set to high),
    as I do without the pedal attached, running the dremel on high. Not
    knowing much about motors, I will not propose why, but it is worth
    thinking about.
