Which neck tool?

[NebrVandal]

Any recommendations on a neck turning tool to buy? The 3 I had in mind were: Forster, K&M, or Sinclair?

Thanks,
Steve

K&M hands down.... I've had em all and this one stays here

I got one of the new Sinclair NT 4000. It is a great tool because it will make such finite adjusments.

Ask a question like this and expect fan boy replies. Everyone will have a different best neck tool.

I have the new Sinclair NT 4000 and find it great to use and easy to adjust. I also got a carbide mandrel for it and found it to be extremely tight. It would also be great if Sinclair offered a mandrel that had an inside donut cutter like the K&M.

The K&M offers a few features that Sinclair dont and I would stick with the stainless steel mandrels if you get the Sinclair.

NebreVandel: Prefer the K&M, the only problem, for me, has been the screwdriver type handle: seems no matter how tight I make it, it always comes lose in the middle of the cut. For that reason, use the Sinclair cross 'T' handle that never comes lose, and I do not have the problem with the hard gripping required with the K&M handle/ arthritis in the hands now.
