Crown turning tools -30% at Woodcraft

[bmyers]

I don't know about your local Woodcraft but the one I live near has "Manager Specials" on Crown turning tools. At 30% off, some chisels are a bargin. Crown makes a nice captive ring chisel in 3 sizes if you're interested. Handles on Crown are typically smaller than Sorby but the are balanced differently too. Of course, you make any handle you like, with a lathe...

At 30% off, do you remember roughly how much they were?

The captive rings chisels were $45(BD), came to about $33(AD) a piece. Many are between $40-60 (BD) but some specialty ones like a hollowing sytstem for vesels are $150 (BD). Parting tools are $25-$35(BD). I also got an oval skew for $33 (AD).

The Crown tools have been on clearance on their web site for about a month now, but not all stores are honoring this - like the Columbus Ohio store, which isn't.
