I bought the barrel trimmer set (with the differnt sizes of shafts) from PSI a number of months ago and bought the 3rd replacement cutter head for it a week or so ago. I tried the new cutter today and it cut no better than the dull ones I already had (and helped dull by trying to sharpen them). I also noticed that the shaft wiggles some in the tube which makes me think that the cutter head isn't square with the tube and blank. Is it worth the (considerably) extra money to by the individual components from CS or AS? The "Apprentice" trimmer set that CS sells looks just like the one I bought from PSI (same price too). I'm assuming it's safe to say it is a lower quality than the separate componants since to buy the individual pieces would cost approximately twice as much as the kit for the same pieces (minus the 8 mm metal sleeve).
I'm thinking of investing the higher quality trimmer parts if they are worth it. I don't want to keep buying cheap replacement cutter heads for the PSI trimmer (they're around $20 a shot with S&H).
Thank you.
