Just wanted to thank you for this and your other videos - I have been debating about getting one of these and you made my mind up for me. Thanks for the code too! I wasn't really expecting it to work for me as I am in Australia but it does and it was great to know that Pepetools ship here and have currency conversion on the site so I could see exactly what I was up for straight away. Thanks again.
I watched a jeweler here on You Tube from Rio Grande who uses the reverse function with carbide carving burrs for stone setting. He said reversing gives much more control and the bit doesn't grab and skitter across the metal the way it does in forward mode. It also cuts less aggressively in reverse. I can tell you from experience that using the flex shaft in reverse for polishing is a horrible idea because it unscrews the polishing head, lol! Oops. :D But for diamond burrs, etc. you can play with it and see what you think.
Just a note for hooking up the hand piece, I watched the Foredom video on setting it up and they say turn it on slowly and then add the hand piece, also the reverse is mainly for left handed people
@@GomeowCreations It was marked down as they must be having a sale AND the coupon coded still worked! Awesome deal! It may be a while before i get to using it, but I will let you know when I do. I've heard nothing but really good things about it.
No problem- Strip ingot mold, the Pepe molds are machined and very smooth. I have seen them in use and they really reduce the flaws and very easy to get the silver out when cooling. Adjustable ingot mold and 1-1/2" chasing hammer head. The molds were not really needed but with that discount I felt it was a good time to upgrade. thanks again. Mike
Great review and already saving to buy one 😎. I like that kind of reviews, but I noticed that some youtube channels transform from good tutorial videos to only technical reviews. Looking forward for your next video.
Yeah I have been doing a lot of tool stuff as of late but I will be getting some more tutorials up soon. I just have a lot of info about tools that I want to get out. That is always why I have been getting more videos out every week 😊
I have this foredom, and I was wondering, do you know if the hammer hand piece is compatible with this model? The foredom #15 hammer hand piece. I love your videos! Thank you for all you do.
@@GomeowCreations Holy Cow! It's spectacular! I was making everything with my Dremel 3000...and while it was a great start, I've been transformed! :) - Marilyn
I'm fairly new to jewelrymaking and doing it as a hobby. I'm getting a Foredom flexshaft in the upcoming days and I just can't decide between the H.30 and H.20 handpieces. The H.20 is obviously more convenient to hold and switch burrs but the 30 is more versatile in terms of diameters it accepts. Do you have a suggestion? Great video as always!
My flexshaft set up directions state that the shaft should extend 3/4" beyond the end of the sheath. You didn't mention that when you were setting up. Is that not important? Wish I had seen this before I purchased mine. Could have saved $30!
Out of the box it was fine so I didn't bring that up haha. I did a video showing how to replace the shaft later on after I broke it and I go over it in that vidoe
I got this foredom recently, question??? What causes the what I’ll call “shaft wobble”? Mostly happens with the 1/4 shaft burrs, I have to pause the cut and allow the burr/ shaft to smooth back out then return to the work. Set up wrong? Shaft over flexed? Factory defect? Just me?
I bought the Foredom 2230 and I would like to know how to use all the components that are included. I can´t find any tutorial o manual that explains something about it. I would appreciate any advise.
well look at that, you are the first comment haha. Yeah this flex shaft does feel a lot nicer than my other one but I'm also working on a vs video to compare both of them that should be out in a day or so.
Yes you can and I have 3 of them including the one that it came with. H.15 Hammer Handpiece - bit.ly/h15hammer H.20 Quick-Change Handpiece - bit.ly/Quick-ChangeHandpiece
