Thread: Just got a Flex Shaft. Ideas appreciated

So, I just got a flex shaft and motor and I'd like ideas for attachments that people have found useful and tasks which people use it for (both razor associated and not). I do some restoration work as well as scale making. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have found the polishing kit nice. They also have some fabric polishing wheels. They look like they are just 20 pieces of floppy soft fabric and they are for a quick release attachment, but they can be used with the standard screw ons as well! I like the wire brush wheels. These really help to get into some of the jimps to clean as well as can help if you unpin and have some rusting or gunk at the pin. Others have said flap wheels with different grit sandpaper, but I have no experience with that. If you want to experiment augmenting blades like DAs or whatever then you may want a grinding kit and if not that a few cutoff blades at the very least. My real suggestion is to get the nice big 260 piece kit. Multiples of most things and very inclusive. The floppy fabric polishing wheel is the only one I have mentioned that doesn't come in this kit. Also, the flap wheels, but again I have never used them.
