You should check his video on this, the guy also casually bought a dremmel, a printer and a fucking microscope (stereoscope?) in the process of making this....

But these are Shenzhen prices, not western retail prices.
I'm pretty sure that "Dremel" didn't cost him much over $10.

Scotty, the guy in the video here. Sorry I'm late to the party. It was 165 rmb, so about $25.

Electronics projects require equipment like that. Those are available in makerspaces near most people in America anyway.
