My new tools arrived today! 

New Tools!

Dental bits
P2280003

2 knives and an awl
Knives and a new scribe.

Fine and extra fine sawblades, and tiny finger drills that I’ll need later I think.

Probably not a good idea to attempt better scribing and routing when I can barely see straight, but I must confess, I did the scribing anyway, and the needlepoint awl scribe worked pretty well.  I really, really needed to do SOMETHING productive today, and the work was close enough, and the wine effective enough (yes, I’m drinking and scribing) that it was a temporary reprieve from the spinning head thing I’ve been dealing with for 4 days now.  I’m returning all the knives; same problems as the Exacto knife, so what’s the point?
Swivel knife and needlepoint awl scribe--they look promising!

Ha!  The point!  Funny. 

I also tried to put together the handpiece of the Dremel and chuck the new dental bit.  It all seems to be together correctly (after several false starts–reading is difficult with this dizziness thing, too), but it’s not working.  It’s not working so much that smoke was coming out of the Dremel, and the handpiece bit was not moving as it should.  I decided I’d done enough for one day, desperately needed a Kleenex, and so I walked away.  Get me!  I’m learning!
