Hey Kiwi, I have a typical Dremel. Any clue what size shank that is? I can't find any info that came with it, or from their website. A while back I ordered a burr, and it was too narrow, I had to wrap tape around the base to make it fit.

I think that it is most likely a 3mm shank - you can also get 2.3mm shanks - and i have been caught out a couple of times too - infact - it seems the cheaper versions sometimes have very narrow 3mm shanks at times lol. I am sorry - i dont know what 3mm is in inches. but you should have other fittings for the narrower shanks . . .

i had not thought of wrapping tape around it - ty :D
