Hi Folks,
I found this site one day last week. I've been reading some of the posts on different pages. Great stuff. Figured that I'd join up, ask a bunch of questions, make some shavings and show off anything I make that doesn't come apart. Does that sound ok with everyone?:D

Seriously, I'm looking for some direction and hoping that I can get a bunch of it here. I had been thinking about getting a lath, but not seriously. Then my wife mentioned getting one. Figured I'd get one from HF and try it out a little and see if we really got into it. So far I've turned half a dozen cylinders and a couple of things that almost resemble handles.

I live in NW Fla. I noticed that there are a couple of people here from this general area. I went to a woodturners guild meeting once out in Freeport. Just wondering if we had met there. I'm hoping to go again this sat.

Take care. Questions to follow.....
Rob

Hi Rob, Good luck getting started, it's a hopeless adiction. The cheap lathes at HF you will NOT be happy with and you will go and buy a better one. Start with a better one, a Jet mini.
