NSK Presto Hand Piece High Speed Turbine Carver
The NSK Presto is an ultra precision oil less high speed air turbine carver. It is designed to run at 320,000 RPM's at 35 PSI. It requires a compressor capable of 1.5 CFM at 35 PSI and most compressors of 3/4 HP or larger are fine to run this tool. The Presto does not require oil and the chip air mechanism blows away the cutting powder to improve visibility as well as cutting efficiency. The Presto measures 5/8" diameter, 4 1/4" long and accepts only 1/16" shank burs. The basic set includes handpiece and 6' of flexible tubing. Used for Bone carving, detailing, piercing, jewelry, texturing.
We recommend the kit with the Filter/Regulator/Switch for ease of use and additionally recommend that you run through an additional water trap regulator.
This is the tool that many woodturners/wood artists including Binh Pho and Gordon Pembridge use to pierce and texture their work see www.timberly.co.nz www.gordonpembridge.com for examples
