@rkess88 maybe something really small. It’s only 2AA batteries. I had a rechargeable dremel and I returned it for a plug in model because even that was not enough battery for me.
@jml326 We had one for our dog. He refused to let us use it. A nice idea, but it just doesn’t pan out. The way it feels or sounds or something doesn’t mesh with my little guy’s vibes.
@awk A lot of people use their Dremel instead of something like this or, for their pets, something like PediPaws. The Dremel is stronger, has more attachments, and isn’t as loud for a lot of pets.
For people, some use it on their feet to get rid of callouses, etc.
notto be confused with the Pure-Pedo 8-1 kit which according to a sandwich shop’s former spokesman, includes a puppy, van, 5 kinds of candy and a roll of duct-tape.
kinda feel sorry for his publicist- he’s still got 4 months left on the contract.
This will be VERY useful for my boyfriend’s feet! He doesn’t do a lot of weight bearing because of his disability, and so he doesn’t really rub off the dead skin cells in the process of walking that most people do. My mom had something similar back in the 90s i kept forgetting I wanted to get him, fabulous choice, Meh.
I’d never use this on my actual nails. Fine for calluses and what not. You shouldn’t ever buff the top of your nail because you’re removing layers and making it very weak. Best thing I can ever recommend to anyone for a manicure/pedicure is a glass nail file.
/image nailtek blue glass file
I’ve had the same one for years and it doesn’t get dull. It also helps the layers at the end of your nails from separating unlike emory or metal files.
@moondrake@Tadlem43 I suppose it’s the super fine texture of the glass. It removes material quickly if you’re trying to file them shorter, but the actual feel of the glass with your finger tips is smoother than any emory file I’ve felt. Most bloggers and YouTube nail artists swear by them. I just don’t recommend the ones from the dollar store because the texture is rougher. I noticed a huge difference when I switched to them from emory. I carry a small emory file in my wallet when I’m at work, but one of the first things I do when I get home is to use the glass file to smooth whichever nail I’ve previously filed.
The NailTek brand is usually around $15-20 at a store like Ulta. I found my first one for $3 at some discount store. When I lost it I was really upset. I ended up buying my current one on eBay for $8. There are other glass ones that work fine… But I like the case that the NailTek comes in. They are glass, so they can break if you drop them. I’ve dropped mine inside the case a few times and it survived.
@troy I wouldn’t know where to start with it! Thanks for asking. Have you heard sylvan esso’s Coffee? it’s very nice.
I had a best friend named troy once…
If my dogs weren’t totally freaked out by stuff like this, I would buy it. One of my dogs actually trims his own nails, not sure how many years his teeth will hold up though…lol MEH
Granny loves her mani/pedi appointments! She can do some of her own “maintenance” still. No cloying claws and no Frankenfeet for her - No NO! (Summer is coming!)

@mediocrebot Hey I want some of those cream crackers.
@awk Dunno what airline that meal is from, but I really gotta stop flying Southwest!
@ruouttaurmind I’m guessing it’s “Asiana Airlines”
@awk Look at mister big shot over with the vision and reading ability. lol
@awk ☺️ I noticed that on the napkin after it was too late to kill my post.
@Yoda_Daenerys Three of them???
@Kawa uh?? yea!! doesn’t everybody have six feet?
but actually, i cancelled to see if the recipients wanted, and the answer was ‘no thanks’
Sheesh. I use my dremel to do this kind of stuff. This doesn’t look as powerful…
@eeterrific I use the bench grinder.
@cengland0 @eeterrific I just put my car on the dyno, swap one wheel with something I stole off a caveman, and redline that thing.
@brhfl Whoa, overkill. Here in VT we just use a chainsaw.
@eeterrific I’ve been calling this thing the “Foot Dremel” ever since we stocked it and i’m not going to stop anytime soon.
Also, what speed and attachment do you use? I have both a Dremel 4000 and a pair of nasty heel calluses.
This is weird. It’s 2PM on Saturday in Japan
prefer dremel or angle grinder
@foxcon
Could this thing be used for small crafts projects?
@rkess88 Yes. They’re called “children”.
@rkess88 maybe something really small. It’s only 2AA batteries. I had a rechargeable dremel and I returned it for a plug in model because even that was not enough battery for me.
Nice little knife sharpener for all the knives meh sold.
/youtube pedi paws
Had this for my cats. Scared the crap out of them.
@jml326 We had one for our dog. He refused to let us use it. A nice idea, but it just doesn’t pan out. The way it feels or sounds or something doesn’t mesh with my little guy’s vibes.
@jml326 how many stitches did you get?
@alacrity thankful none. They ran when it turned on. Haven’t seen them much in 7 years. Wife says they’re ok.
@jml326 same thing happened with my ex-in-laws and my chainsaw. best purchase ever
@jml326 This tool would work only if the pet is sedated.
What is “Buffing Nails” a euphemism for?

Or, you could wear socks.
my dremmel does the same thing.
that, and this is totally worthless for margaritas.
@alacrity Not true, you can use it to grind some salt for the glass.
@awk so will my dremmel.
Hopefully this cure will end the suffering of those with mani or pedi.
Looks kinda fancy, I’ll stick with my belt sander.
This thing is a small typo away from sounding illegal
So everybody talking about Dremels or bench grinders, are you just making the same joke, or am I missing out on an awesome personal hygiene trick?
@awk if you don’t own a dremmel- you don’t know what you’re missing.
@alacrity By interesting coincidence, I actually was using my dremel earlier this evening. But I didn’t think to use it on any part of my body.
So… what’s the best bit for keeping my feet baby-smooth?
@awk personally, im a fan of the medium sanding drum, though my ex was fond of the pumice stones as they offered more variety of textures.
@awk A lot of people use their Dremel instead of something like this or, for their pets, something like PediPaws. The Dremel is stronger, has more attachments, and isn’t as loud for a lot of pets.

@RiotDemon Fascinating. Why does it prevent separation?

@RiotDemon Thanks! I’ll see if I can find one.
@Tadlem43 I hope you like it!
I just figured the model number was trying to cash in on the popularity of Finnish pop sensations Pepe Deluxé with his such as "Girl!"
"Salami Fever"
"Lying Peacefully"
There was actually a really nice official video for this delightfully chill song, but it seems to have disappeared from the internet.
@jqubed I had salami fever one time back in the early 80s, but I cured it with a pork injection. Fight fire with fire, they say.
@jqubed Dang it, that was supposed to say “hits” not “his”
It’s like a Dremmel, but for your feet!

I’ve had one of these for year and it is fabulous. Efficient, effective, and is helped me a lot with the healing an Ingrown toenail as well.
How can two AA batteries be strong enough to get the job done here? Do some people have delicate, lacy corns? Soft, pillowy calluses?!
Yay!
