Review: Good product, it is what it is - Works as intended, I use it for engraving hand tools. I purchased separately the diamond point dremel engraving bit. Cuts better than the one included with this engraver (see my review). Lighter than dremel rotary tools, and smaller, though the plastic seems to be of the same or similar quality. Stroke per minute dial works as described, engraving depth can also be adjusted by the pressure you apply with the tool, the bit (like the diamond bit), and how many passes you do. Engraving small initials is easy, making decorative glass would be more challenging and would require more skill, but this is not what I use it for. After a few tests on some scrap to get the feel of it, I was ready to go. I was pleased with the results from the tool, but my handwriting, not so much. Tool worked well. Included stencil works if the tool is help perfectly vertical to the engraving surface. Though the way the letters are stenciled, there are large gaps due to the thickness and design of the stencil. For example a letter B looks more like 13. Sometimes I used the stencil and then filled in the gaps by hand. It's very similar to writing with a large, vibrating, noisy pencil. If you have a steady hand you could easily write someone a letter on a piece of sheet metal. It is rather noisy, especially on the higher settings, lots of buzzing and rattling but doesn't retract from the functionality. This isn't the sort of thing that requires stealth anyway. I had no problems with the set screw when changing bits. I was prepared with a small flat bladed pocket type screwdriver and know how not to strip a screw. Snug it up and you're done. If the bit comes loose (which mine hasn't) snug it down a little more. If you start perspiring, grunting, or shaking violently while tightening it down, ease up. It's a set screw, not the lug nuts on your spare tire. Good price, Dremel is a name brand, and bits can be purchased at most hardware stores. I was unable to find the diamond bits at my local hardware stores so I just orded it with the engraver from desertcart. Good tool

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will adjusting the Stroke Control Dial change the speed?**
A: No, the dial alters the impact or depth of the engraver. The higher the chosen number of the dial, the greater the impact or depth.

**Q: What accessories will work with the Dremel 290?**
A: The Dremel 290 Engraver will work with two engraving tips/accessories - 9924 a carbide steel tip and 9929 a diamond replacement tip.

**Q: What’s the difference in the materials the two different engraving tips can work in?**
A: Under most conditions the 9924 carbide steel tip will perform very satisfactorily on glass, steel, ceramics and other hard-materials. For continuous operation on these materials the 9929 diamond point tip is recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good power

Good power, worked as spected.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fine, but better set screw would be nice!
*by B***E on December 27, 2025*

The first thing I'll say, is that most of the negative reviews are a result of a poor understanding of what this is and how it works, or a simple lack of mechanical knowledge and skills. It does engrave, but some people seem to have unrealistic expectations as to how it will engrave. Don't expect a vibrating tool to allow you to draw perfectly accurate images, no matter what they are. I bought it to engrave my phone number on some dog tags. Do they look factory engraved - NO! But, do they need to?! Anyone who's been past the first grade can read them, but it does sort of look like a 1st grader did them! But, as long as they're legible, that's all that I need. I did pull one star for Dremel being cheap with the set screw the holds the bit in place. One reviewer commented that it has to be completely removed to get the bit in. That isn't true, as I got mine in without removing it. But, I had to take it out a turn at a time, once it looked like it was close to being all the way out, and push down on the bit as I did so. When the screw was clear, it went it, but with a bit more force than it should have taken. I suspect that this is due to a bur being left behind when the threads in that hole were made. This could cause some to remove the screw, totally. And, if they do so, some people will have a very hard time getting it back in the hole and started. If one has a screw starter tool, that can hold a straight blade type of screw, then that will make it easy. But, most folks don't have one. I happen to have one, but as I said, I got my bit in without removing the screw. The proper solution was for Dremel to not be so freakin' cheap and use an Allen screw for the set screw. Allen type set screws can be used to hold the screw while starting it, as long as the Allen wrench is kept at a vertical angle, so the screw doesn't fall off of it. Shame on Dremel for that! Otherwise, it's as good a hand held engraver as I've ever used in my 79 years!
