I had lessons with a RPT who's been turning professionally for over 30 years and he uses the sorby jigs even now and says why have the hassle of getting it wrong with expensive tools when you can get it right every time with the right jigs, especially finger nail gouges where it's so easy to bugger the profile. Either that or get the sorby pro edge. I wish I had that.
