Interesting Question

I've been woodworking for several years now, and I hadan interesting thought today as I was driving to town forsome red oak.There used to be quite a bit of discussion here about tool quality.And this started me thinking...Given the same project, how would a master carpenter withcheap to mediocre tools fare against an amateur with superior toolsand perhaps 1-2 years average experience?In other words, would most of the difference lie in experienceor tool quality?

The true master would first ensure his tools were adequate for the task. Then he would leave the amateur in the dust. This, of course, assumes a contest worthy of a master carpenter.
