Highlights
Quality
It really is well made and good torque.
It is a nicely finished machine with an extremely flexible and comfortable flexible shaft and hand piece.
There's two 608 (skateboard) bearings that i swapped out for 4 higher quality bearings (using washers and spacers to get the spacing right.
It took all of 10 minutes to disassemble and grease up with high temperature grease.

Obviously the short cord shaft is a sacrifice but you cant transfer this much torque and power down a 10 foot cord
