Unboxing The Arbortech Mini Pro & First Tests With Texturing & Carving

I purchased the Arbortech Mini Pro last week and today I finally had the chance to give it a go, these are my very first tests on what it can do. So far, I am impressed with its versatility and ability to remove wood fast. I've only scratched the surface of what texturing abilities it might have so I am looking forward to experimenting further. Carving is where this should come into its own and I am confident it will add to my skillset and portfolio.

Your videos are the clearest and most helpful instruction I have found for carving on wood turnings. Thank you for your good work!

Thanks for the great feedback Jim, I really apprecaite it :)

[@RhythmShackUK]

Your work inspirational. Absolutely the best I've found so far.
I'm looking to get started, but can't decide on which tools. Every time I make my mind up, I find a new video and change it again....
Ball gouge looks like it should be a definite, probably along with the mini turbo plane, but then I saw this video.... haha....

What size is the wheel,wondering if it can fit my Merlin 2 ?

[@FromASeed]

I'm not sure if it will fit the merlin, maybe send them a message. They do make a bigger version for a regular grinder though.
