I bought one last April and had nothing but problems with it. In contacting the factory, it appears it's a knockoff and not stable. These are found on Amazon and E bay with the words "FOR WOODCUT" Misleading.

Which factory are you contacting? I’m curious what is unstable about it. Another case of getting what you pay for? For an almost $500 difference and a factory store called Bonbo, it would send up big red flags for me! I strongly suggest you change your title and not continue the “Woodcut bowl saver” fraud.

Another reason I never buy from Ebay and Amazon for turning tools or parts. Only the manufacture, even if the price is high. Saving doesn't always mean quality!
Caveat emptor, thats easy for me to say with 50 years in engineering. But for many this is not the case and they become the scammers most sort after, always remember there's wisdom in many advisors.What is paid is never a good indicator of quality, be it little or a lot.
Hi Peter, thank you for making contact with Woodcut Tools, I'm sorry that you were mislead and brought a counterfeit of the product we proudly designed back in the 1990's. If we can support you and the club further please let us know.
