I think I'll try the foredom 1040 and post a video of how it goes. I'll keep working on my grip too. I tried again the other night and simply can't get a ball bur into soft metal more than 1/3 of the way without it chattering. I hope this helps.

who makes the best burs for setting? especially pave. I should order a few top notch burs to use with the tool when it arrives in a month or two depending on customs delays. lots of time for watching videos til then.

You will probably get many opinions here. I've used Busch brand carbide burs the most, they work very well. Also have used Lynx brand and those are OK but not for everything. Technique has a line of burs that is on cheaper side, I've only used their saw burs (not carbide) and so far these hold up well for silver and gold and copper.
Whatever you use, carbide will last the longest - as long as you lube burs often and don't 'force' the cutting.
