As a newbie to metal arts of any kind other than collecting hobo nickels, I have many questions.
Can anyone advise me on rotary tools. I have a dremel and was thinking about buying a flex shaft for it, which would probably be fine for rough work and polishing, but it is far from a precision tool!
Considered purchasing a Foredom which I have been told is much better, but I could probably do a lot with the Dremel flex that I could do with a Foredom. I read on the forum that Sam Alfano uses the NSK because it is more of a precision tool, but it is really expensive. I have seen Chicago pneumatics online pop up often.
I am looking for something a bit cheaper than NSK that is capable of doing detail work. Is there anything of quality between Dremel and NSK? Any advice? Chris
PS-In the market for a power hone setup if anyone has one laying around collecting dust (LOL, highly unlikely, but worth the ask!!!)
