Carving and engraving bits are the largest category of Dremel accessory bits for rotary tools. On packaging carving and engraving bits are represented by the color code: Teal. The category includes a variety of cutters able to be used on glass, fiberglass, plastic and soft metals, acrylic, wood, semi-precious stones, rubber, laminates and particleboard. Dremel carving and engraving bits are ideal for carving, engraving, etching, cutting, smoothing and shaping. Their overall sharpness and durability allow Dremel bits to last a long time when used properly. What's more, we also offer a selection of high-performance Max Life bits in the carving and engraving category of accessories.
Engraving bits are best for fine, detail work. Their practical use may include engraving a name on a valuable item for security purposes or delicate work on a wooden duck decoy.
Model numbers: 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, and 113
Carving bits come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They work on wood, plastics, and soft metals. Some of the more unique possibilities for these cutters might be clearing a hole in a gourd to make an outdoor bird house, or creating a vacation sign on wood.

Like engraving bits, diamond coated wheel points work nicely on detail oriented-work. They work effectively on brittle material like glass, semi-precious stones, hardened steel and ceramic. Remember that applications in glass and other brittle materials will generate a lot of heat. The diamond coated wheel points are not fluted like drill bits and therefore are not designed to drill a hole in glass or other hard materials.
Model numbers: 7103, 7105, 7120, 7122, 7123, 7134, and 7144
Their appearance makes them look a little like the back of a porcupine. The most common use of these accessories is material removal. For example, when hollowing out a portion of wood, the sharp, pointed teeth on these cutters provide superior performance.
Model numbers: 9951, 9952, 9953, and 9954
A cousin of the power carving bit, tungsten carbide carving bits are just as sharp and can be used on tough materials like fired ceramics, hardwoods and cast iron. The cutter is also very effective on wood. The sharpness of the accessory makes it long lasting and provides a clean cut when working with wood.
Model numbers: 9901, 9902, 9903, 9904, 9905, 9906, 9909, 9910, and 9911
