I've been tinkering in relief carving for the past few years, but have always used some crappy chisels. I noticed my small v-gouge has became so thin on the right side that the metal flaps in the wind:-D
I'm looking to buy a new set of chisels with a couple of good gouges for stock removal and long, comfortable handles, if that's possible. I'm on a budget, but I definately don't want to buy bad chisels like I've been using. I've been thinking of buying individual chisels from Woodcraft or Rockler, but not sure if this is a better way to go.
Anyone know of nice set for under $75 that has a good selection of chisels in the set? Needing these for relief carving also.
I'd appreciate any suggestions.
