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?
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.....
