Default Proxxon carving tools

Proxxon does make a carver that is similar to the Ryobi. One supplier is Mountain Heritage Crafters online:

I have a Ryobi and have had no problems with it. I've seen them on ebay, for more than I paid new, so folks must still want them. If you really intend to use one a lot, the Automach is probably the better choice; twice the money but worth it in the long run.

Default Re: Proxxon carving tools

One thing about Proxxon tools is you have to get a power unit to run some of the tools with, so figure that into the cost. I recently purchased the mini belt sander (no power unit needed) and love it!!! I will be buying a couple more of their tools because I am so happy with the quality.
