On one hand, dreidel is a primitive wooden device jewish families use in place of worthy gifts for their kids on passover. And Dremel is a state of the art all-purpose tool you could cut, drill, saw off, shave and brush your teeth with.

But! Dremel gets pretty boring after about five minutes of initial excitement, and dreidel, on the other hand - ah, I could spin that biatch for hours!

Tough call. Need to decide what to get my dad.

Sounds like an old MST3K skit...

Why not have both! It's the Dremeldreidel!

It spins, it cuts wood and metal and gives out wonderful gifts at the same at same time...

So....

Give a man a dreidel and he's entertained for day. Teach himt to use a dremel and he's entertained for a lifetime?

I've somehow managed to live my entire life without ever having a dreidel...whatever the fuck that is.

I do own a Dremel though. :D

Wrong holiday, Hannukah is when we didn't get great gifts.

Passover is when we couldn't eat leavened foods. Who could forget the delight of bringing a hard boiled egg for school lunches one week a year? :Q



How about playing dreidel with your dad?














Don't forget to let him win :laugh:
