"Tool Intensive - Your Flexshaft"
*by Michelle Ross*  


In this wonderful demo, Michelle talked about how to use the flex shaft and the various hand pieces. Furthermore, she really opened up a world of possibilities with all the accessories. Her demo also included Faux Bone and the importance of using separate tools for it. The handout is very good with suggestions on how to get even more information. Thank you Michelle for sharing your expertise.   

A big thank you to Michelle for being our hostess as well.
