^^^ yeah my buddy and I have been looking at that thing but as much as we like what it does we can't justify its cost. Priced about 50% too high to make it an impulse buy. Especially considering you need a good drill for it to work. Seems like something you should get two for $19.99 plus shipping on a TV ad

Cool tool. I don't think the price is unreasonable. It would depend how many uses you get before the fabric brushes disintegrate. I would also be afraid of the spinning shaft coming into contact with the wheel at certain angles. Also his 3 videos really could be edited down to 1 video about 3 minutes long..too long and tedious..OMG, just watching his introductory title I was ready for the fast forward button.
