Does anyone have this for nails?? - Page 14 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Have to tell you, I was taking this apart to change out the file part, and I got tempted to try it on myself (like a dremel). It was quite painful! I was surprised. Good to know.

I haven't gotten mine yet either and I ordered it 5 weeks ago, I called them and they said probably in another week, but they probably say that to everyone!!

I received my awhile back after waiting a long time to get it. I have to say, I love it and it was well worth the wait. No problem here with using it on my lil one, however I just tried changing the sanding disc and now can't get it put back together...

Has anyone tried to change the sanding disc by taking the shaft that holds the sanding disc out and how did you get it back in????

Hi Sweetpea, just hold the small button in while you tighten the shank ,when its tight, then release the button and screw protective cover back on.

Okay I just ordered the petite a few minutes ago. I read through the entire posting about the problems some were having with getting their product. Ijust want to commend the guy who thought of this product, he went and made a product that is highly sought after by pet owners and groomers. Sure there were problems what company hasn't had them in the beginning. But he did something most companies won't do, he talked to many of you personally. That is what decided me into ordering this product. I hope mine love it just as much as yours do.

YAY! I finally got mine over the weekend...heheh

mistyinca · 06-07-2008, 07:28 AM

I got mine yesterday, and I tried it right away.

The first thing is that the round file in there doesn't match up to the hole (using the smallest hole). If you put Chloe's toenail in it, her toenail actually will be above the filing thing--like it sits too low. I did circumvent that by pushing up the filing ring higher up on the thing (that's a good word isn't it?) it sits on. Did anyone else have to do this?

Do I need to post pictures--I have no idea what these parts are called. "Thing" is the word of the day.

hehe i actually got mine but haven't been brave enough to use it..its funny though because i own a nail salon and have been doing nails for about 10 years...and we use the same type of drill...hehe...

ChantalB · 06-12-2008, 03:59 AM

I just order one too!

lucyaboo · 06-15-2008, 10:46 PM

I was looking at the Peticure online, but I ordered the Dremel MiniMite instead, got it within a week & have been trimming away. It is great!! It is cordless & rechargeable & works well on low speed. Was ordered & shipped for under $33.00.

Janie Doyle · 06-16-2008, 02:31 AM

Lucaboo do you have the link from the company you got yours from ?

lucyaboo · 06-16-2008, 07:06 PM

I got it on Amazon. I opted to pay for cheap shipping to get it faster. Hope this helps

The low speed is at 6500 RPM - seems safe enough for my girl.
