Woodcarvers Supply sells a heavy duty 1/4 hp 25,000 RPM flex shaft 
tool similar to the Foredom that uses all the Foredom handpieces.  I 
find that 25,000 RPM is usually fast enough for heavy work .  The 
high speed permanent magnet mini grinders are great for detail work 
albeit most are a bit pricey.  Proxon makes a permanent magnet mini 
grinder for less than $100 that is pretty darn good for the price.

Be sure to look at the incredible nature inspired art jewelry hand 
fabricated by my wife, Karen Olsen Ramsey.  It's worth the time to 
take a look!
