WEN 2305 Rotary Tool Kit with Flex Shaft, $17.20
Who knows how long this price will last, but it's been low-ish and trending lower for a few days... I won't call it a "hot" deal, since it's never very expensive and the price seesaws regularly, but it was up in the mid $20s for an unusually long time, so I finally decided to pull the trigger at $17.20 rather than waiting for it to go back down to its historical low, which iirc is another dollar or two cheaper. The tool by itself is always cheaper and its price doesn't jump around quite as much, but it doesn't come with a case. On the whole, the reviews of the tool itself are pretty good for the price, and probably for occasional light-to-medium duty use. The flex shaft on the other hand has bad-to-terrible reviews overall (ditto the bits/accessories), but at this price, I thought it was was worth buying the "kit" just for the case. For what it's worth, comments are mixed as to whether Dremel's flex shaft fits - it seems pretty definite that at first glance it does not fit, but it's not entirely clear whether it might with a little futzing/jerry-rigging.)
