If you don't like it, You can sell the vise, and you're
probably only invested for $20-$30 at the end.

Maybe even less if you bought the stuff used on eBay to begin with.



And less even yet if you know of anyone who tried it, decided they didn't
like it, and is selling a whole kit with all the materials and hardware.

But then we're back at stage one!

I think, to modify Dave's initial advise, I'd say if you can get into a
complete kit (especially used) for a very reasonable price (under $30-40),
then go ahead and get it and see if you like it. Taking a class or finding
out if you really want to start tying is a nice idea, but if you can get
puttering around a bit on your own on the cheap, go for it.

The thing to avoid is to go buy the best of all materials, keep adding to it
until you have hundreds of dollars invested, and THEN decide that you really
don't like it!
