Neat Idea, but I'd rather use a lathe
While it IS versatile when buying the whole set, be very carefull not to do anything wrong, because all the mandrills have to fit into the same cuttinghead. I've been extra carefull to clean, and lightly lubricate inside the cuttinghead - but something messed up, and now I cant us ANY of the two cuttingheads, even with shafts/brushes that I haven't previously used. Make one mistake, and that cuttinghead, and likely the shaft/brush is ruined forever. If the shaft fastens even a little in the cuttinghead, the shaft/brush will either tighten or loosen - loose enough to not keep the tool in the right angle, or tight enough for the expanding part to lock up inside the gun, making it difficult to remove. Right now, after 3 uses, it's just he most expencive non-functioning tool on the shelf - collecting dust.
