    Having used the CP (chicago pneumatic) "airscribe" handpiece for
    about 18 months now, I wonder now, why I didn't buy this earlier.
    Stuller has a kit they sell for around $400. You can also check out
    www.chicagoairpower.com. However, they do not include the foot
    regulator with their kit. They carry ALL the accessories you could
    possibly want for your airscribe. It is very comfortable &
    lightweight. It moves the thickest bezel wall like nobody's
    business. You will need a small air compressor (Sears sells them for
    around $170) the handpiece operates  AT  110 psi. You will also need
    hose (1/4" fittings). 

    I too had wrist & elbow problems. This will definately help out w/
    those issues. Foredom is a good company. I have tons of their
    equipment. The CP unit, however, just blows them away. I have seen
    this in action on the History channel. Some archeologists were using
    the airscribe to chisel out some bones from a very tight area. 

Good luck!
