There's a perceived direction. I'd love to do artsy-fartsy bowls and
figures.
After all this discussion I see attending that week class and hanging with
some of that club's members as critical.

It looks like some of YOU guys are the bottom-less pocketses - LOL. Probably
drive Prevost motor "coaches", too.

Difference between men and boys is the price of their toys. Ain't it the
truth.

Those
would kick it up close to _ another _ two grand in acquisition cost.
Hate
to consider replacement, because it's well-said that "they don't make 'em
like they used to."

Of course you don't have to buy a chain saw, band saw or sander if your
turning interests don't require such tools. That's another reason to
start small and work your way up to the tools you need as your interests
develop. Also, how do you know the size of the tools to buy if you have
no turning experience or direction developed yet?

But then again, the OP may have bottom-less pocketses.
