[Jewelry making - Article 00896] - [Orchid] [again] Purchase new flex shaft

    Hi, I need some advice on the purchase of a new flex shaft. My
    old Renda (an English make) has just broken down, smoke coming
    from the motor, and I can't find anyone to fix it! I have the
    choice between a Procraft or Foredom.  I would like some feed
    back from Orchid members as to which is the best one buy. 

    Any Aussie Orchid members who can give me suppliers of the above
    brands would be appreciated.   Perth is so small that there is no
    competition for price reductions. Is it worth importing from USA? 
    I can save A200 dollars by importing a Foredom and paying
    33%sales tax. Does anyone know who repairs Foredoms in Australia?
    I have contacted Rio Grande, but had no reply yet. 

many thanks

Felicity (feeling poor!) in West Oz
