Review on 🌳 ARBORTECH Ball Gouge – 30mm Spherical Shaped Wood Gouge Power Carving Attachment for Angle Grinder – BAL.FG.2000 by Chris Beals

Seasoned runaway, read update

I bought a used version and I have to say I'm disappointed. I have used Arbortech products before and enjoyed them. The planer and mini cutter are great, as is the grinder, but I've found this ball chisel attachment likes to tear through material and leave a rough texture. Not sure if this is a specific used bra light but I had high hopes. My friend has this in his shop and I figured it would help me with future projects. Not sure what to think. Tried it on several types of wood and even changed the grinder with the same result. I'll be back tomorrow morning. Update 6/27/20: I used my friend arbortech BG and it worked pretty well. I didn't have the cracking and rough texture of the used version I bought.
