I see "great for beginners" mentioned many times. Why should beginners not have the best tools? What are the experts using?

I think it's intended as a lower price entry tool to see if you like chip carving without spending the money for higher priced tools. I have both and still use my Flexcut knives most often. I've seen some knives go as much as $100.00 plus. Flexcut knives are fine but may need some modification to the handle to fit your hand. If you want something a little better and more expensive Wayne Barton knives are very nice. I'd get his book too, The complete guide to chip carving. Hope this helps...

Not really. It's a good beginners' tool though to familiarize with the constellations. I bought it more for the projections that my 3- and 4-y-o are both enjoying tremendously

The best thing to do is watch the videos that are available on their website. They are very informative and helpful. Then do some practice cuts on scrap to get a feel on how to use the tool.

I highly recommend Autodesk Sketchbook Pro. It is the easiest program to pick up. The tools and interface are a snap to learn. I've had the 2012 edition and currently have the 6th edition and they just keep getting better. All the brushes, pens, pencils just look more natural. Plus it's cheap compared to photoshop and adobe illustrator. I believe I paid 40$ each for both versions. They just came out with the 7th wich I am planning to upgrade soon. Go on youtube and watch what people can do with this program. It's amazing and beautiful. You will instantly want to buy it as soon as you finish the video.

hello! well i do recommend this for beginners in synthezizers, this one is of ´the simple ones`, but attention! this is not a toy, is a very powerfull machine, with wich you can do a lot of things. so if you are looking for a simple keyboard this is not for you. instead if you want to experiment with sounds and start to understand synthtezizers, this is a good start. this instrument will fit very well beginners but also experts who know how to train this little monster!

Yes, bosch has the best tools in average... I use them since I was a kid, and my father used them before me. If bosch doesn't do it, none will....it even bits Hilti, which is the most expensive company to buy tools from.

I am guessing that it did not have a user guide. suggest you review the 80 comments on the amazon website and you will likely learn as much. It is a simple tool. I notice Amazon has carried it since 2004.

I am a beginner and I am loving this machine. It comes with many "foots". Once you get the hang of it, Its like YES! I am a pro. Not really but its fun to dream. You will have no problem getting the hang of it. Do a simple project first then the sky is the limit.

can you make dadoes with this? If not is there another hand tool that I could make dadoes and rabbets out of? i can't invest in a table saw or high powered equipment they seem pretty expensive. (I'm a apprentice level carpenter and beginning to take interest in wood working)

They actually didnt work that well for me. Im only a beginner so there might be some user error, but ive had better guides before.

It is a great product for beginners. I personally would have the kid start out on virtual dj free edition without a controller and see how much they use it so they don't end up just throwing it to the side and never touching it again. Once they demonstrate that they are really into it then I'd say get them a mini controller and then this one, and after that a professional one. However, if money is not an issue, then yes, this is a great product.

If you're a beginner, yes it can be helpful. It is a useful tool for exercising.

I like the Squirt better myself. I almost always prefer the original style tools to the skeletool/wave style. Still it depends on what you're going to use it for. Your best bet is to buy whatever has more of the tools you will personally find useful. For example, I personally almost never care whether my MT has a scissors, while for some people the folding scissors is the most important tool. My least favorite thing about the Style is that I can't get a knife and pliers in the same tool. But if say the tweezers are a key part of the tool for you, then maybe you would be better off with the Style PS. I like the Squirt better myself.

Good day Jemaul ! To be honest with you. It'd better if you take your time and find a cheap deal on the hardware, then get a "Student Edition" of the full software for cheap. Thatt's how I did it when I went into Pro Tools 10.
