There are several Dremel type tools on the market these days
Most bits are interchangable.
Just remember, you get what you pay for, so watch for sales.

Is it a Desoutter die grinder?

I've got one also, just changed to the Dremel so I don't have to un my compressor all the time as they've got quite a high air consumption.

The Desoutter actually runs faster than the Dremel I believe but most of the Dremel bit's will fit the Desoutter and vice-versa but the Desoutter is a much better tool for cutting than the Dremel is due to the higher speed and the torque is slightly better IMO.
