Need advise on fleshing machines

[mr.T aka mr. friendly]

I bought a Dakota V new, because I was starting out. I wrestled with every cape, just thought that was normal, I upgraded to an Eager Beaver machine, and I thought I won the lotto, what a Cadillac difference, smooth, quiet, accurate shaving, my first shave job on the new machine I was grinning and laughing, and for once, enjoyed shaving capes with ease. What a POS that Dakota V was.
