There have been numerous recent posts regarding the quality of turning tools and chucks that are a bit disturbing. Some folks imply, none too subtly, that if one can not afford high quality (expensive) tools and chucks, one really should not bother to participate in woodturning. The suggestion is that less expensive tools are simply not worthy of anyone’s attention or use, and perhaps those lacking the resources or priorities to acquire expensive tools should find another hobby. Is this the best attitude and message for woodturning?
Granted that some of us enjoy reading the road test articles about Ferrari, Lamborghini, and other expensive makes of vehicles, and are happy for those who can afford to own them. But nowhere in such articles do they ever imply that if one drives a Chevy, one should just quit driving.
