Rotary Tool/Engraver specs

Hi Kinya
I'd like to get a rotary tool to tune my harmonica reeds. I know that you recommend the Microlux Roto Buffer but I live in Ireland, they are expensive to ship over here. So I'm looking for an alternative.
What specs should I be looking out for? For instance, how many Watts? I know it's good to get a device with a small, pen-like shape like the Mircolux.
I've been considering this as an option, what do you think?

Thanks in advance

Hi Seán, very good to hear from you! The Halford rotary tool kit looks awesome (like the Dremel), however, is will be an overkill for tuning harmonica reeds.
I'm not certain of the wattage of the Microlux Roto-Buffer, but it can't possibly be much. What I like about this unit is it's unique and replaceable buffing tips.
How about searching under battery operated buffing tools used by Manicurist. Let us know what you find!
