Hi All,
I just want to express my extreme thanks to all of you who provided info,
experiences, and help in my
desire for aquiring MY perfect drill! Your help means more to me than you can
know (well, you probably can). LOL
Please know that I am going over everything that was offered an
Tammy,
I had a co-worker once not too long ago, who bought a ram, and it broke down a
few months after she got it. Not sure why..and they did fix it..I believe

For ME I would not use them again... because I put my bits in the disinfectant
and leave them there until the next client... or the end of the day...
No it probably would work fine if I kept my bits dry or allowed them drying
time in between. If it were now and I had them they would work fine...
Their feet are bigger and they are always sloushing the water out of my bath
and making a mess, so this dry pedi is sounding better and better.

That's true. I have about 5 men that come in to get pedis. Would love more.
They don't wear polish and give better tips. They do need a little more callous
treatment though.

I have used crock pots for dry towels. I place a small container of water in
the pot, place a steamer/vent tray on top of that and place the

The best thing I have found is a crock pot. I used a rice/veggie steamer and
that uses too much water. The crock pot heats them fast and they are freaking
HOT when you take them out!

Ok guys, do you have any suggestions on where and what kind of towel warmer I

Once you feel the heated towels, you will love it.

doing this but I know my clients will think they are getting cheated and some
might want a discount. How do you introduce it to them without them thinking it

Tammy,
I have had my kupa file for 6 years and I just had to replace the hand piece at
a cost of $110.00 from ram products. I love this machine. They are a bit
expensive but when you average out the cost over the number of Years owned it
is worth it.
