Jennifer, I do acrylic and gels. I also do wraps and dips when needed. It is good to be able to do any nail service some I dont do a lot of but when someone is calling around you just might get work on a slow day. Or save someone's fingers on vacation. I use Entity acrylic and IBD gel. I am not much concerned with the cancer thing. They are primarily using MMA monomer and that is a known problem. Possible cancers and birth defects and other things. There is a ton of MMA info here on line. Deb has it on the beauty tech sight. There is a big difference between the "fumes" that stuff creates and the odor that ours has. Read up before you decide to change what you are already good at. Anyway glad to hear hubby is a good mechanic. <LOL> Mine is too. Also son is an electronics engineer so I think I have most of it covered.
Take care Dawn [email protected] Lancaster,PA -----Original Message----- From: Jennifer Hopping <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sun, 21 Dec 2008 8:48 pm Subject: NailTech:: Re: e-file tragedy Hey Dawn I live on the east end of Long Island , I took an e-file class with Simmy thats when I bought my file it was'nt to long ago I don,t think I got all that inside the drill lit he just heard me reading the advice and got his ass in gear sometimes other people can do wonders right ?? I have been worrying about this for a few days I am thinkin g my daughter might get engaged on Christmas so she wants her nails in top shape . she hates hand filing I only do finish by hand. that drill is a god send when you know how to use it.

Don't Panic>>> you can get it out without sending it for service. The end of the shaft the bit fits into unscrews and you can get the broken piece out. Did you get a small screwdriver and a flat wrentch with your unit? The wrench has a triangular whole in it. That is the piece that will unscrew the end. There should be also a page of instructions for some minor maintence and how it all comes apart. Take a look at what you got with your drill and if you arent too mechanical there has to be a guy in your world/area that is mechanical enough can help you out.. Where in the east are you? Maybe one of us is close enough to help Good luck hope you can get it figured out.
