Default Santa was a very good girl.

My wife decided I needed some new equipment for Christmas. I got a Dremel cordless unit with a bunch of blue and diamond burs. I've never used this kind of tool, anyone have any knowledge they can share?

I also got a Colwood Pro burner with 2 pens and 2 tips. I've been looking at the "cub" unit but WOW this thing is great! I used a older unit a friend lent me to take a class a couple months ago and while I'm on where near good with it, I can use it for some details on some of my carvings.

CONGRATULATIONS!! You lucky man Cheers

I sure lean on my Colwood -- I could not carve without it. I use it very much on carving Santas' beards.

I'm drooling over the cordless dremel...

Probably would have gotten one, had I not been on the "naughty" list!
