    I am pondering on what kind of flex shaft to buy.  I'm planning on
    doing precision work such as stone setting.  Should I buy the
    standard 'CC' system (up to 18000rpm) or the more fancy 'L' system
    with the high torque and low speed (5000rpm)?  Will the low speed
    system be a disadvantage in any way? As for the handpiece, is the plain
    old No. 30 prefered by stone setters or should I shell out a few more
    dollars for a higher quality quick release variants?  Also, what are
    the differences between the 'S' motor, the 'R' motor, the 'TX', and
    all the others?  They all seem pretty similar to the 'CC' motor to
    me.... 

thanks in Advance
