Love that it is very easy to carve, about 6 hours of work as it was my first stone carving. Mainly I don't like it. No mount is supplied and maybe they could make a nice mount that comes with it or even make it usable horizontally. Most of the reviews I've read about shaft failure are for two reasons. Shaft bending at 90 degrees BAD! Therefore, hang it so that it does not bend more than 60-70 degrees on the work surface. and don't pull it either the shaft comes out of the handle as it's made that way to replace the shaft but although it doesn't spin well when you pull it and it comes out it pops out when you move back , possibly breaking the shaft. But I knew about it before I used it. And I haven't had a single problem. THIS IS AN AMAZING TOOL.
