I would like to begin power carving, but I have no idea which one to buy, or where to start with all the accessories! I am interested in carving a noah's ark, with all the animals, so I would like a lot of detail! I am interested in a very good tool that will "do it all". The Foredom looked impressive, but at $500 I wondered if it lived up to its price tag. I welcome any advice you can offer. I read "power tool wood carving" by Alan and Gill Bridgewater, as I had hoped that would assist me in making a decision. However, it just left me confused about if reciprocating was better than a rotary carving system, or if I could actually get both of those combined in one system. If you could offer some suggestions, as well as some web sites where to buy, I would be thankful. Also, I am seeking information on the new flexcut reciprocating power carver. Did anyone try it? thanks!
