This video was done many years ago and at the time I was using a Rotoflex - this ran off a vaccuum cleaner. These days we teach our students using a Dremel but I personally use a Marathon N7 micromotor. You can find these quite reasonably priced on ebay.

hi, what equipment are you using?

Thank you so much for demonstrating this skill. I am very interested in creating egg art. My grandmother made hundreds of beautiful egg designs. She and I would work on them together, when I was a child.

I inherited her eggs along with many of the tools, materials, and plain eggs she collected. I have decided to create eggs again. I would appreciate any other ideas you would share.
