I'm thinking of adding a micromotor to my arsenal, mostly for setting work (although the high speed appeals for polishing applications). In part, I'm finding the flex shaft of the pendant motor can be obstructive when I'm working under the microscope, so wondered if switching tools would help.

Does anyone use one? Or better, both? I'll probably go the cheap route and get a Foredom rather than an A*F for now, but recommendations are welcome.
