Problems cutting flex track rail - Model Railroader Magazine

I have always liked using my old Dremel with a cut off disc for the last 30 years, especially because I can shave off or cut rail to get precise fits - especially in yards.  I do use a Xuron but I usually need to dress the ends of the rail a bit anyway - they work pretty good but I'm picky.

Seems like many things are made more poorly in recent years if the info about the Wis sheers and my experience with a newer Dremel moto tool is any indication.  I have an Dremel I bought in the early 1980's and bought a newer model (new in the box) but manufactured in the late 1990's a couple years ago.  The newer one's shaft failed after only a few months light use - the early 1980's Demel is still going after 33 years or so.  Confused
