Don't you just love new tools? All the possible things that tool is going to do for you, all the amazing accomplishments. Now, how to decide the right tool for you? I don't know an easy answer to that question, at all!
I'm building a workshop right now, work bench, torch, and flex shaft! That's a lot of tools! I'm checking suppliers, and I'm researching temperatures, and of course, price! I figure that this is an investment to hold out for me for the next 50 years, so it had better be good, (no pressure)!
In a recent workshop, (short class) I took at North Bennett Street School, I got the opportunity to work with the tools made available by the school. It was a great experience to get comfortable with torches and really be aware of the safety involved around a workshop.
Some of the sources I have been checking out are: Rio Grande, Otto Frei, Gesswein, and Monster Slayer.
What are the different sources that you guys use?

Actually, I recently discovered Contenti.com. I work at a craft store and even with an employee discount, I can't get prices like some of those. Good prices for art clay, and some unusual items, too.
