High speed carvers?
After a somewhat lengthy search, I either came up with little information
or way too much input on high speed carvers! Anyone have a source and favorite brand on like high speed dental carvers and burrs, or is high speed dental flex shafts what I want for basically surface textures and some piercing? Thanks, Lewis -- "If I knew what I was doing, I wouldn't be here" |
High speed carvers?
it depends on how "large" a texture you want to create - the HS air driven
micro carvers are really great (200K rpm and up) but are only useful for fine and detailed work. A fordom type tool (dremel, etc, 10 to 20K rpm) will handle a bigger bit and are useful for larger textures and carving. I also have used a reciprocating carver and a flap wheel in the lathe for shaping something that needs an organic type curve. I could post my specific brands, but I think first you need to specify the scale at which you wish to work. "Lewis Dodd" wrote in message ...

I have seen a 3450rpm, 1/2 Hp heavy duty, 6' flex shaft machine used in =
cleaning foundry castings. I looked like it could handle a 1" burr.
