    I can't really read which one the guy from This watercooling installation guide uses, but it seems like its optimal for case modding (which is what he does, can see from the pics). Hope this helps, never modded cases with a dremel myself.

    I'd go with the Dremel brand.

    You're going to want to go into Home Depot or Lowe's (or even Wal-mart, but theirs are overpriced) and find the model that suits you best.

    You want variable speed, accessories are your friends and buying one with a case is nice.

    Corded > Cordless(Depending on how extensive you wish to mod).

    yea i was planning on corded, i dont like cordless power tools or wireless anything for a lot of stuff (like i avoid playing games on wireless, would never run a server on wireless) anything that requires precision in my opinion needs a cord>.>;

    Definately go with Dremel brand, the other ones are all either too expensive or just flat out not as good. Getting it in a kit with the case and several attachments will save you some money in the long run. And if you're planning on doing grinding, make sure to get the wheels with the carbon fiber shit in them, and get several, they wear out fast.
