Royce said the important stuff.  The burrs you mention are slow but leave a nice surface ready for sanding.  The burrs like Sabertooth or Kutsall are much faster a removing wood.  Follow up with the burrs you pointed to for smoothing.  

There are many Drimel tools on the market.  All are fairly low power which can be bogged down.  There are a couple higher power tools which cost significantly more.  The higher power tools are a joy to use but maybe not worth the extra money.

Other materials?  Plastic, laminates...  Think about what you would cut with a router.

Rotozip is high power and versatile with a wide range of bits for cutting different materials.  The Rotozip is not well suited to anything but coarse work.

​AND if you do, what are your thoughts and experiences using these burrs.

I will be using these mainly for ww'ing but it would be nice to know what other materials y'all have used them on.

Lastly, do they dull or wear out easily?
