Hi all, I'm pretty new here. Thanks in advance for any advice. I am an artist/ sculptor, and I just received an Arbortech power carving unit, ball gouge, and turbo planer from my husband for Christmas. I'd love to buy all the accessories at once but I have to limit myself. If anyone uses this, which accessories are most useful to you? Any advice on which I should buy next of the Arbortech accessories? Anything else essential that I should get? (I have PPE already of course, and most power and hand tool stuff that a carpenter would have, like drills, bits, hole saws, reciprocating saws, the usual power saws, sanders, and I have a lathe. I'm getting a better band and scroll saw before summer. I have hand chisels and knives, rasps, all sorts of sanding stuff, also pneumatic sculpture tools but I use those for stone. I'm relatively new to wood carving.) Edit- I have several Dremels and pretty much every Dremel accessory related to carving anything as well. I also have another angle grinder and a bunch of Kutzall discs and burrs that I haven't tried out yet.

Just wondering if anyone with an Arbortech Ball Gouge knows how well it'll work for scooping out Ash end grain?
