Graphic representation of bur/burs (replaceable)

We either need to purchase/download, pay someone, or spend time creating good 
looking 3d models to represent the drill and the mirror.

Good quality graphical models are usually well recieved by VR users and typically 
increase immersion but perhaps of most importance is to get the geometry correct. 
The angle of the drill head need to match that of the physical one held in the hand. 
This also goes for the mirror.

Need to pick a course of action.

As for the burs we're aiming for spherical, cylindrical and cone shaped drill bits. 
I can't be certain yet whether the haptic rendering will be stable for cone and 
cylinder burs and won't know until the drilling algorthim is ready.
