Typical bits are designed to only cut in one direction, they would burn up if you ran them in reverse. Diamond bits and alike can run in either direction since they don't have cutting edges. Being able to run forward and reverse gives a wider range of application, when working into the right side of a tight space the forward direction naturally strips away while pulling towards you where when working into the left its more difficult. Being able to reverse with and non-cutting bit allows you strip away more material while drawing to the opposite direction. Being able to reverse doesn't have so much to do with being easier if your left handed since many bits do not function in reverse. There are many instances where being able to run in reverse has a practical application or benefit. Even if you are left handed it is not practical to run in reverse unless you can acquire special bits designed to cut in reverse.
This is a great comment! You are absolutely right that there are more benefits for the forward and reverse feature on the Foredom that just helping left or right handed people. Like you mentioned many bits are fluted so they can only be used in the forward direction. We do have diamond, ruby, saburr tooth (carbide), and ceramic bits that can run either direction. Many left handed people like to run their rotary tool in reverse so the bit does not run towards them and they seem to have more control over the bit. It is really nice to have a tool that allows you to switch. Thank you for your comment!
Gracias Gracias felicitaciones y siempre adelante
Great video, thanks.
