    Every time you pick up a new tool, you learn things about working with it that teach what you want from your next tool. Gotta start somewhere.

    When you reach that point, and you know what you want, what’s important to how you work, you should replace the tool. Just do it, because it’s wasting your time and effort, and possibly also material if it’s failing in ways that a better tool would not. It’s preventing you from doing better work.

    Pass it on via Goodwill if you can’t find a better candidate.

      I know you’re right. It’s just me being… me ;)

      In France, we don’t use craiglist but we have a similar thing called Leboncoin (for anyone wondering). Maybe that’s jsut what I will do, taking this as the opportunity to also look for a good deal on a better model for my own use, using that same website ;)
