HI,
I have all these Dental Hand Pieces and assorted pieces for them . I don't know if you can use them for carving or not . I aquired these when I bought an air compressor from a dentist who was updating his office ,and they have been sitting in a box in my studio . If anyone can use these let me know , some are new some are old .
Thanks ,

Yes, they are completely useable for carving in wood, ivory, antler, bone, etc., even stone (with the addition of water). Assuming you have all of the pieces to make them work (hoses and fixtures), this is an excellent score, Cheryl!

Approx how much could someone ask for all this including the little table? This is the water and air table .

Hi Cheryl,

Those are very cool! My vote is to give Dante as good a deal as your heart will afford - he will use them well!
Best regards,
