Needing to purchase a gouge and a bowl gouge for making Christmas gifts. Some will be only wood, others resin and wood.

I have been looking at the solby ? tools but know little about them.

Any preferences or recommendations?

I have a cheaper HF lathe. For now anyway. Can turn about any size as the head pivots on it. I will stick to app. 10-12 inch bowls and smaller.

Price range I would like to stay under 100 bucks each if possible.

Robert Sorby tools are very good. I use his micro modular set on game calls. His full size tools are even better quality.
