As far as I know Carbatec is about it for local shops here in Adelaide.
Otherwise, buying online is how we have to buy here unless you manage to buy secondhand...:U
Do you know what type of turning you will begin with? Spindles or bowls? You use different tools for each.
If you don't know yet, I highly recommend you take some turning lessons and that way you will not only avoid buying tools you don't need but also get some tuition on how to use the ones you do need.
As a starting point I suggest you contact local turner Tim Skilton (
[email protected] ) to see if he is running some classes himself or can refer you on to someone who he recommends.
Ignoring that advice, you won't lose a lot by going with the Carbatec economy set. But, if you get enthusiastic about woodturning it is inevitable that you will be replacing individual tools from that set when you know what you really need.
