Hellotiki,

I have burn't two of them up already. The last one last week as a matter of fact. I love the tool, but not for heavy use. Light usage for detailing and smoothing yeah, but for digging out behind teeth and what not no. At about $125.00 a pop it get's expensive. I used the percival from King Arthurs tools on it mostly. They have a variable speed on them and I always ran'em wide open. Good for final sanding because of the angle. Better than the Arbortech mini griders because they do not have a belt drive which slips under load.

Good tool, but cannot take a heavy load for very long....
