present (WHAT were YOU thinking???)!
After just 5 years of being too cheap to buy a movie camera, Dawn got me one for Christmas!!! So, I took my first movie. It's a DIRTY movie, realizing that I have never cleaned my shop since day one. The camera is on a mounting device I made to sit on the headstock of my Delta lathe (also 15 years USED)! So, the movie is a little rusty as well as being dirty. (All the features a REAL GUY would like to have).
I spent all day editing the "voice over". But, I believe it will be worthwhile for those who have asked me how I use a skew.

This will show one of Roy's Polyresin blanks with the gold leaf over the brass tubes. It starts out square and, seven minutes later, its a pen---well the cap half of a Jr. Gent. The next movie will be up to you guys.
After five or six of them, I hope to be able to make a pretty good DVD--but that's a while away.
For those who view, please take a moment to critique, either here or send me a PM. I expect to post the link about 6:45 my time (half an hour after this is being typed---the video is uploading to youtube, now). EDIT: Make that 7 PM, the upload is still going on (91MB)
Looking for feedback, especially related to the angle of viewing--can you tell what is happening???
Thanks!!!
