At home handpiece units/compressors

[daddds]

I was wondering if anybody has any experience buying handpiece equipment for setting up a small lab for practicing direct restorations at home on a typodont (air syringe, high/low speed). There's a couple I found on ebay but not really sure what to look for or stay away from. Here's the links to the ones I've found so far:

Thanks for any advice!!

Save the $$, and just spend an extra 30 minutes or so a few times in your schools sim lab and you'll be fine. The comfort level with prepping a tooth really comes quickly for most, especially once you spend some time prepping an actual tooth, which IMHO is much easier that prepping a piece of plastic

Good to know, considering I'm finding the plastic to be challenging, haha.
