The following message was in answer to a question about a mini-flesher. Does any one know more specifically what kind of pneumatic tool from WalMart I need to look for? Thanks for your help.
"You can go to Wal-Mart and look in the pneumatic tools. The handle for a min-flesher can be found there. The cost is about $35. Then call McKenzie and ask for a John Rinehart catalog. In this catalog they sell the blades, shield and guards. The prices are $17.30, $23.50, $22.25 respectively. For a total of $98, this is half the cost of one out of the catalog."

After readind the first post I checked and found you can get the die grinder at Menards for about $22. If you don't have a Menards check at Lowes or Home Depot or any other home building store.
for your help. We actually have a die grinder already...1/4" and we are going to call McKenzie to make sure it will be the right size for the guards, etc. in the catalog. We are going to do the pressure washer fleshing, but feel we still need the mini to thin in the face area. Again, thanks for the help.
Just talked to McKenzie's and they said Pneumatic Die Grinder will not work with the parts in John Rinehart's catalog. He stated that Fleshall made a special air die grinder to use with the parts; it is patented. Has anyone used the parts on a Pneumatic Die Grinder?
