    My husband brought this drill home today, and I must admit to having mixed feelings about it. Although I absolutely love the structural lines of it, I'm also rather creeped out by where its been.

      Shudder! My first thought was 'dental torture' ..... but maybe this is a little more for a jeweller than a dentist?

      Maybe it can be turned into a lamp?:)

      Medical insurance has been a disputed topic in our country lately, maybe we should save it just in case:$

      Great tool! I found one of these Emesco's in Costa Rica about 20 years ago. It was at a flea market! Cost me $5 but doesn't have the foot control so I had to adapt one. Now the belt (78") broke and everywhere I look says I have to be a registered dentist in the USA to be able to BUY a drive belt! Works great for hobby stuff.
