Thanks for the thoughts it does have the motor and shaft. Given that the Co is outa business got a notion the outfit might be more of a headache than a useful tool.
I have a chance to buy a NgraveR flex shaft machine. No foot pedal and only one cutter. Is the thing worth owning? Not a fan of the hand piece since I’m used to my mushroom handle push gravers. But thinking I would like to try a power graver. At $200 it’s not a pile to try but also don’t want to...
