Customer Reviews
Worth the price
I've never used the Tormek 2006 so I can't really compare this new model with it other than to say that the color's changed. But since no one else has reviewed this item, here goes:
I'd pretty much go ahead and agree with anyone who says Tormek is an outstanding value and is worth the high price. This is a very well-made machine and Tormek stands behind their products and jigs. I've invested too much in my tools to not take proper care of them; my Tormek is used to sharpen an arsenal of tools that have a combined worth of more than twice the cost of the machine and all its accessories.
For what it's worth:
This package did not come with the TTS-100 Turning Tool Setter. I had to buy that separately. You will want it if you're going to be sharping your gouges or skew chisels.
Don't let the included DVD be a major selling point; the Tormek website has videos of all the jigs in use and there's nothing different on the DVD. The website is easier to navigate than the DVD menu, but YMMV.
The accessories came each in their own little individual boxes for a total of 9 small, yellow, cardboard boxes. Apparently the two Tormek "accessory packages" (Woodturner's Kit and Hand Tool Kit--which together contain all of the jigs and accessories) come in large polystyrene trays that can be used as drawer liners for organizing the accessories. These would have been nice to have, but I suppose I can live with little cardboard boxes. Maybe in the future they'll ship this ultimate package with the 2 storage tray boxes rather than dispensing all of the jigs à la carte.
A true complete kit
I received this package as a Christmas gift. It is an incredible package. If you are interested you can view a dozen or so videos about it on youtube. I watched them over and over prior to wanting it. It is an investment for sure with a price tag over a grand. I feel it is truly worth it. The video is very comprehensive and you can probably borrow one from your local Woodcraft. (I did that also.) This kit comes with a nice box for each jig to be stored in. I made a cabinet with drawers for each box to rest in. One for turning tools, one for chisels, etc. I also mounted the machine on a lazy susan so that I don't have to pick up the machine to turn it around as some operations are done in reverse. I just mounted it and made some dowel stops to secure it in the forward or reverse position. Words can only do so much. I really suggest the videos. The machine itself is very well built and everything works together flawlessly.
