I have a new goal. I've never been one for goals, but oh well.
I want a "www.turbocarver.com/". The whole setup i want is about $800. So my goal is to sell enough jewelry/art to buy this tool. I have had trouble with vibration effects on some of the california jade when using the foredom flexshafts. I just need to actually turn out a bunch of jewelry and turn it into money and the idea of such a spiffy carver will be my motivation. I've also technically spent more for supplies this year than I have made in jewelry... So I figure I need to actually sell $1100-$1200 worth of goodies. I'm not much of a salesman, so this sort of profit is completely unreasonable. Worth a try. Wish me luck.
