I brought this when it was last on offer about a year or so ago, it works well but you get what you pay for.

It is compatible with some Flexcut bits I will have a look and see if I still have the packaging for the bits I brought.

This is the set of Flexcut bits that fit this machine HERE

I had to take a file to a couple of them as the coating on the tang was too thick but apart from that they fit, and turn an ordinary machine into a good one.

I've just picked one up from my local store which had plenty in stock so as long as you are quick I think anyone wanting one will be OK. I've never used one so may have to have a play on next months challange (providing carving is allowed of course ) I'll let you know how I get on with it but on first inspection it appears to be reasonable for the price providing your not expecting a top of the range model.
