Thanks Benzart,I guess I will get that one then.
A couple of related questions:
In a carving book I just read(carving driftwood), the author suggested that the longer the handpeice cable is,the most flexible/useable it is.
As I said,I have never touched one before,Is that something I should look into about that model,or should I just buy it as is.
I am left handed,so the reversing feature will really be handy.
Another thing I've noticed is that alot of other units have bigger motors.Is bigger better?Or is it necessary to spin these little bits?
I always thought that the reciprocating feature was just some lame gimmick,but from what I'm reading,it sounds like you guys like them.Maybe I will get a handpeice and a set of flexcut bits also.
