I use spring clips srewed to a baton, easy to move around if required and expansion is simply more clips

One consideration is - how many woodturning tools do you need? :) I only have about a dozen and some are rarely used.
Another consideration is where you put the toolrack. I've seen lots of photos of tools mounted on the wall behind a lathe. It always seems to me that this is potentially dangerous to reach across a lathe when it is in motion.
Wrong question, it is how many woodturning tools do you want?
