I didn't like how it left a much larger kerf than the cheap pumpkin carving saw that I had. The cheap saw (the ones that come with carving kits for a couple $) was also able to make more precise cuts. I feel I have much more control with the little saw than a Dremel. Another problem is if you would use the bit in the picture then it's not long enough. I was carving medium to large pumpkins and thickness of the pumplin was a problem. You had to try to move the Dremel in a sawing motion which really presented control problems. Tried my regular Dremel for pumpkin carving and it didn’t do well.

I guess there is only one way to find out. Hopefully it doesn't get too dirty. I wonder how my regular Dremel would work for carving pumpkins? I guess there is only one way to find out.
