Re: Who Begot Who? Comparing Planes from Lie-Nielsen, Wood River and Stanley

I recall a comment supposedly attributed to Lincoln regarding the use of tariffs. It was something like, "I don't fully understand the dynamics of the tariff, but I know if I buy an English coat, I have the coat and the English have the money. But if I buy an American coat, I have the coat and an American has the money." As for me, I try to buy the very best quality tool and thus never have to worry about buying a replacement for a long, long time. It forces me to budget and carefully consider each purchase.

We have a many fine craftsmen in this country and I am glad to support them through the purchase of their products. Either we all hang together or surely we will all hang separately.
