What's a good spindle / flexible shaft router to use? - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

I am thinking of using this Harbor Freight flexible shaft grinder on my machine. Does anyone have any experience with this or know if it's any good? I don't plan on doing anything too intensive with it, mostly milling pcbs or the odd light engraving.

I'm gonna bump this since this forum moves so quickly.

Probably not much help, but I'm using an old rotozip and I am finding that the bearing is shot after not much use, and not the collet has play in it. I would be interested to see how your idea works out.
