I thought the same, but in the last year I've:
- altered the keeps on several doors which had ben incorrectly fitted (i.e. new lock, old keep, so the lock mortise didn't fit)
- cut the tops off two Spit cordless batteries carefuly so that they could be recelled
- cut back a really awkward RSJ flange so that we could get stone slips installed (because an angle grinder would have destroyed the lead-clad oriel window next to the RSJ - and in any cas we couldn't get even a 4-1/2in angle grinder close enough). This took a lot of cutting wheels, but saved having to take-out and replace a £10k windowm unit to correct a complee cock-up
- ground a blob off the bottom of a ceramic vase so that it would stand up straight
- cut new screw slots in damaged screw heads so we could remove antique brassware from old doors for re-use on new doors
And that was just the start, with a basic Dremel kit. Once you have one you'll keep finding things it can do, really
