Just make sure if you get some to bribe you neighbors!
 
I LOVE the turbo carver! it is sooo smooth and getting those tiny cuts is a breeze! Yes, $300 is a lot, but I do a lot of carving, so to me, it was worth that cost instead of having that unlimited egg supply.
yes I have found that the saying "you get what you pay for" is typically very true. I spent a lot of time getting the off brand or slightly imperfect, or used things and i always spent twice what a new one would have been repairing it, or just wound up with something that didn't quite do the job I was after. yes there are some great deals out there, but in general, paying the little extra up front pays off in the end. I don't have an air compressor, my my mom (next door) does, and now that I think of it, she also might have something at least similar to a turbo carver. I will have to raid her shop and see what she has, lol if it can be used in crafts or is used to put together car kits, or "seemed useful and cool" there is a decent chance it is in the shop somewhere

Well get your "raid" on!! You will have a great time with how easy it is to create really nice stuff! Let me know what you find!
 
This is so exciting! I've only recently started decorating eggs since my duck Ming has just started laying. These are the 3 I've done so far. I hope they can count!

Thank you so much! I'm trying my hand on egg embroidery now. I'm happy I've found a new medium for my temari skills.
 
Very beautiful are their metal hinges on them ? The picture is not showing that.
Thank you. Yes, the hinges are brass. They can only been seen if you have the eggs open and are looking for them specifically since I cover as much of the hinge as possible with trim and cover them in corresponding lacquer. Sort of like hiding your seams when sewing.
