    When my torn rotator cuff from an old motorcycle accident made all
    setting jobs a lot more painfull I began using the GraverMax for any
    job that involved moving metal or engraving tools. Even white gold
    can be moved quite easily, without relying on hand and shoulder
    strength. Bead raising, bezel setting, flush setting, channels, etc
    can all be done by letting the power tool do the hard work. As the
    eyes are also showing the effects of over 30 years at the bench, I
    invested in the Meji microscope and Acrobat stand last year. Now I
    look at the quality and detail of the work I can accomplish and
    realize that I should have done this years earlier!
