Tools
In my workshop you can see and try (and order) almost every woodturning tool
from:
Sorby, Crown, Axminster, Brimarc, Hamlet, Kelton Industries and many more.
Many ask me about their cost. Well here we are:
First you need a lathe. Please see below.
To purchase a set of about 6 basic tools that someone needs to start with, has a
cost of about 200 €.
Also you have to order a chuck costing about 170 to 300 €.
