    I have owned and sold the foredom power graver.  I bought the GRS
    power graver to replace the foredom.  My feeling is this:  If you
    are going to do alot of setting work, ie: setting is a main part of
    your business, bite the bullet and buy the GRS.  However, if you are
    like me and do occaisional setting jobs, tightening up stones after
    sizing, doing an occasional remount, try the foredom.  if you are
    buying it used, it shouldn;t cost more than two hundred US dollars; 
    the GRS with the compressor and hand piece will work into close to
    between 1500 and 2000 new.   Even if you do not like the foredom,
    you can sell it and always buy the grs like i did.  The GRS is a
    great tool, but you still must be a good setter to make proper use
    of it. 

My two cents worth
