Why didn't I think of this before?

Paint removal has been a relatively easy process for most of the interior woodwork. The tricky part has been getting the paint out of the nooks and crannies of all of the crown molding at the window and door heads. I have been using the Speedheater and though it easily removes paint from flat work, these areas are another matter. After scraping away with an Exacto blade for countless hours, an idea finally came to me: if only I had a tool that could get into these areas - kind of like a mini-sander. Wait, I do have such a tool!!! I quickly ran to the basement and found my Dremel. It took a lot of patience and care but I think that using the Dremel was a success. I used a very small pointed carving bit for the tight corners and then a round drum sanding bit for the rest. This saved a lot of time and frustration. I also did very little damage to the actual wood (unlike the occasion gouge I would get when using the blade and sandpaper) but it still took quite a bit of time due to the nature of the tool. Perhaps if I had better eyesight and hand control it would have been easier. I also wish my Dremel had a lower speed - that too would have helped with the control.
The only unfortunate thing is that I didn't think of this until I was on the last bit of paint stripping in the bedroom. The window trim is about 75% sanded. I decided to not strip the window stops and will likely cut new ones instead (when I do the window restoration next...). The existing stops are cracked and several areas have completely fallen apart - likely from when people have removed them in the past. I am still on schedule for painting by this weekend.
