Mike_p,
Thanks for your comments. I agree the motto "You get what you pay for" applies to such items, but at £ 29, ($55) for the Drill, Stand, Flexi-drive and 150 piece kit - it CAN be classed as disposable !
If I carve 2 trees a year at the moment that is it. Most of the time, it is simply a case of tidying up or just putting extra tweeks into an existing design. For this type of work, this will be more than adequate for my needs.
Cheers,
Ian.
