Does Anyone Know....

...how to change the bushings in a rotary tool? I had one to freeze up on me and I wanted to try that before I throw the tool away. I hadn't even got to do one big project with it when a friend of my daughter's borrowed it with her permission (without mine) and it froze on him about halfway before he got done with the first cut.

I'd contact the manufacturer. If dremel, they should stand behind it if it hasn't been abused by trying to do too much at one bite. I have a dremel that I got in 1969 and it is still going strong on the same bushings.
