1/16 long carving / 1/8 long carving bits?

[myshop1044]

I'm making out my conference parts and bits list. I was just wandering for those who may have used the long carving bits
which one would be better to start off with, I assume the 1/16" is for more detail and 1/8" is to move out more wood.
I use the 3/16" regular carving bit when I am carving a region with not much detail, would this be true for the long bits?
Can the "long bits" be used for any carvings, such as a deep dish carving or is it for the rotary jig only?
I also notice there is not a "long cutting bit" for sale or did I miss it in the bits sale section.
Any comments would be helpful.

If I were going to buy one long bit, I would buy the 1/8" deep bit. It can be used on flat boards and on the rotary jig. It is stronger and so less likely to get broken. (I think all bits are 10% off.) It would be great for deep dish carving.

LOL Dan ,,,, The 10 % off don't even cover the shipping .... It would be a better sale if they just paid the shipping on a full priced bit !!!!
