Still trying to decide what to buy, and whether to go to carbide instead of traditional. I have a 3/4 roughing gouge that I want to master first, and then I guess I'll try to decide what to buy next.

Ah, but do you want one? :)

Watching YT vids was what made me want to get started. They're very relaxing. Have you watched Nick Zammetti? Kind of annoying, but he definitely has a style of his own!

1) Wood working is not in my list of hobbies, nor do I have the space or desire to add it to the list.
2) Yes, I still want one.

Carbide is easy, and works extremely well. The learning curve with traditional is not how to use it, but how to sharpen it properly...that is most of the battle.
