The old cannon that i made it was "pathetic" in my opinion, so i made a new weapon for Sideswipe

Cutting a rifle from a generic robot i made the cannon (here's with the old small cannon)

Not only that, now Sideswipe has a sword.

See, Sideswipe is a mech who really suits a sword. I still recommend modifying the handle so that he can hold it closer to the hilt. Holding it by the end of the handle just makes it look off-balance.

How many of those 'generic robots' have you got, anyway? (I think I've got three that came with those guns and swords.)

[EDIT] By the way - if that little selection's anything to go by, it looks like your CD collection's about as eclectic as mine..!

Yeah... that's how you hold a sword. Nice job on the cannon, too; that really suits him.

Hey Sturm, what is the price of a Dremel?
(Cuanto sale un Dremel vato?)

Prices vary depending on what you want. If you're set on a Dremel (certainly the most famous brand), then your best bet would be find a retailer near you (Dremel has a locator on their website http://www.dremel.com) and find out from them what's available.

But be aware that while Dremel has pretty much become a replacement name for a mini drill (in the same way that many people call vacuum cleaners 'Hoovers' no matter what their brand), there are other brands to consider.
I use a Como drill myself (not as well-known as Dremel, but a much longer established company), which cost about £40. Como sell direct from their website, http://www.mfacomodrills.com.

Have a Google for things like 'mini drill' and see what comes up.
