    i just recieved the new #20 foredom quick change handpiece that i
    ordered from Blaine Lewis at the New Approch Jewelry School. i have
    been using the #10 faro handpieces for 20 years and never thought i
    would like any other. this #20 hand piece is a very good tool. there
    is no wobble with the burs which is very helpful when setting. the
    burs do not get stuck in the collet every other time. and the
    gripping seems to hit my fingers better than the #10. dont get me
    wrong i have been using the same five #10 handpieces for 15 to 20
    years with min. servicing. hopfully this #20 foredom handpiece will
    last just as long. the reason i chose this handpiece over the #20
    was solely because of cost. the #10 is now $150 to $190 and the #20
    handpiece sells for $75.00 i felt it was worth trying. my #10
    handpieces are getting to the no fixing point (ball bearings going
    which causes a wobble) and i am starting to just replace them.  give
    BLAINE or HENRY a call and order one i recommend trying it. their
    number is 1-800-529-4763
