    Question Equipment at VEE

    I need to find a drill, more for repairs than lenses, and a reasonably priced buffer. Do any of you folks have recommendations for who I should visit at Vision Expo East to start my search?

    An option

    B&S (mentioned above) have great stuff. You can't go wrong.

    PSI (Practical Systems, Inc) might be another place to shop.

    I also get stuff from Grobet-Vigor.

    We use a Dremel tool w/flexible shaft for repair drilling,buffing, etc. Their site is http://www.dremel.com/html/home_fr.html
    For a larger buffing wheel we bought a bench grinder from Home Depot and put buffing wheels on instead of grinding stones.
