dont shoot me
from a quick skim over this page its all about hard carving, ahem cough cough where does Arbortech fit into this? Is it included on this page or elsewhere?
reason is in starting to clean pack up the shed as we are moving again I found a box of 5 angle grinders that reminded me somewhere there is a full setup of Arbortech gear. Himmeles I found it, a couple of pieces are still in their packaging. just dont ask questions.
So now I ask some tech questions, I saw a YT vid on No Lathe Bowl with Kutzall Discs how do they stack up against Dremel?
Big question is dust and maybe I should post this over on that page.
But how does one cope with carving/sanding dust with orbital routing sanding gear. I had a flash of a 500MM diameter bell mouth hooked up to 150 hose
see how we goI would love to grow my own food, but I can not find bacon seeds

To me, it's still carving, whether one uses knives, gouges, angle grinders, chainsaws, etc.
You'll likely get faster wood removal with your angle grinders and/or Arbortech stuff than you will with a Dremel. Some carvers do the roughing with the angle grinders and Arbortech and finish with fine bits in the Dremel. Also depends on the size of the carving: A 1 meter tall carving would take a long time to rough out with a Dremel; an angle grinder would be overkill on a 150mm caricature.

Foredom SR model is my choice, it is said to be a Dremmel on speed.

I am extremely fortunate, but also a lot of planning went into my dust management. I do a lot of wood turning, Arbortec carving, and now I have an overhead router.
Dust. I can open both sides of my 'dirty' area and the seabreeze romoves all dust, all I can flash up the evaporative air conditioner on high and direct the dust outside. I breathe through external air source. I live on 1/2 acre and essentially have vacant land behind me.
I also have a 3 HP dust extractor, but rarely use it these days, I hate changing bags.
A garden blower assists me with cleanshop cleanup
Failing this, I would build a cubicle and try to contain the dust and debris

My shop is slightly larger than a single car garage. I work at a down draft table made from a recycled Horn sewing cabinet and a 3hp dusty.

Ah! I have the Dewalt version of that tool he's using in the video. https://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-7...4011/203574137 My carving with it was all "outside" carving, not "inside" like in a bowl, so I used a flat disk with big hunks of carbide on it. worked well for removing large amounts of wood. I worked outside, but wore P100 face mask, goggles, leather gloves, and a leather welder's apron.
