MOUNT PROSPECT, Ill., Aug. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- A Maker's tools are essential to his/her project success, often working like a part of his/her own hand. As a longtime supporter of the Maker Movement, the Dremel^® brand has dedicated the month of August to giving Makers the opportunity to expand their toolbox and find new project inspiration through the program Dremel Maker Days.

Throughout the month of August on DremelMakerDays.com, Dremel will host a digital calendar of daily sweepstakes and product offers.
