Default Re: using Mastercarver or Foredom recipro. handpiece
I have the Arbortec Power Carver and it is BIG for using on larger pieces. It will also wear you out after a couple of hours using it. There are a limited number of chisels available and are all large.

I use mine to rough out signs 36" and longer.

I do not own a flexshaft.....yet but when I do it will be a Mastercarver with the reciprocating handpiece. My decision was based on a lot of research and a whole lot of input from folks on this forum.

Hope this helps in your decision.
