It's the one with the paddle switch and it's got a 7+ Amp motor. I have one on it's way I hope at the store and I'll grab the Lancelot 14 and 22 tooth and see what those do for me. I got a Dremel style grinder with a flex shaft and an array of burrs and stuff for it. I am holding off on all of it for now and just using my mallet and flat chisels. I have the Irwin Marples set and they have worked great right out of the box. I am ordering some gouges soon through either Big Horn or Japan Woodworking. I am very lucky I can order at Wholesale through work.
