RE: Need pointers on tools

Hi Doug,
I know some people like Dremel’s but I’ve had one for over 25 years and perhaps have used it a half dozen times, I like the versatility of the flexible shaft Fordeom it’s more expensive but it’s more powerful and can go in reverse when needed, it gives you the capability of just changing hand pieces for quick changing of bits. as far as hand carving and carving gouges I suggest the list Mary May has, she also has a free basic courses for free. https://www.marymaycarving.com/carvingschool/category/tools/
