    Today was fine, ordering is always good. I do have some suggestions about a few of your products. IN addition to turning, I am a quilter. I have purchased a couple of items in the past few uears that have not been as usable as I had hoped. The seam ripper and scissor is impractical. The scissors do not cut and the item is too heavy to use while quilting. I have not purchased the seam ripper/roller due to the same problem.

    This looked like a good Chuck, and with the accessories it was a good deal. I have been very impressed with the quality of everything. I have only used it a few times, but it has been better than expected so far. One should not hesitate to buy this if it is what you are looking for.

    Only reason I gave a little bit of a poor response for customer support is because I sent in an email about how to apply the redemption points and I never heard back on it. Everything else has been 10 out of 10 are really great.
