    Thank you so much. I’m thinking about getting a lathe and learning turning, and this was VERY helpful. You’ve given me the confidence to give it a try.

    Nice intro Guy! I was just give an old Sears lathe. People make fun of them on “serious” wood turning blogs. Well this is, by a country mile, the most fun machine I’ve ever owned. The turning part goes almost too fast. You can finish sand it right on the machine. That goes really fast. And I’ve even stained and applied a rub-finish. And it all turns out great. I love it. I look forward to seeing some more of your projects.
