Answer:

Yes it will. I suggest getting a template with the font(s) and/or design you wish to engrave, paste it on the tool on the location where you want to engrave, and then cautiously do your work. Afterwards you can remove the paper and glue with a simple adhesive remover or alcohol. Do this until you feel that you have become proficient with the tool and techniques. Good luck!

Answer:

I use the Dremel Electric Engraver Tool to engrave manufacturers name and model number on tools. Note that If you use it on chrome plating the chrome plating will be damaged in the process (kind of like scratches).

Answer:

Hi Cancun, yes this tool will engrave on tools. If the surface of the tool is real hard, you might want to consider using a diamond point, part number 9929. This diamond point is for continuous or commercial use. This engraver will work on steel.

Answer:

This is actually a hammer action tool, so grinding and polishing attachments will not work with this. It makes tiny indentations in a surface, which form lines. I use this in my granite engraving work. I'm not sure why this is listed as a rotary tool.

No. You need an air die grinder to do that. Rotary tools just don't have the power.

Answer:

Only use the accessories provided, or the accessory that is specified as an alternate (diamond tip) for this specific tool. Any other accessories will either not fit or may cause damage to the tool which may then void the manufacturer's warranty.

The dremel electric engrave tool is a vibrating device not a rotary device. Therefore, rotary accessories cannot be used with this device.

Answer:

This is not a rotary tool and therefore no other attachments can be used on it. Consider other "Dremel Rotary Tools" for that usage.

Answer:

Yes it will. This is a vibrating engraver, so depending on the thickness of the acrylic you should not have any issues. I have used mine on very thin acrylic and did not have any problems. One hint I would give is make sure you have a smooth surface under your work to help prevent the possibility of cracking.
