I just found this forum today. I'm a member of a model car forum and an N scale model train forum. I've joined this one because I'm a self taught woodturner, and I have much to learn. I live in Kodiak Alaska which makes it difficult to find other turners to learn from. As I have time I'll attempt to find a chapter of the AAW that might serve this area. It is my oppinion that forums contain a wealth of information from people willing to share their experiences. On the other forums I was able to give advice. On this one I'll be receiving the advice. Thank you.

Doug :)

Welcome

Hi Doug,

Welcome to an excellent forum. We have some knowledgeable people who are willing to share what they know. Some care very deeply about certain views and express them with feeling. As with any forum, I suggest that you sort through the posts and take that which you need. As in "flat work", there can be several approaches to the same issue.

My suggestion to you is to join the AAW and receive their excellent publication. There are some excellent videos available through the AAW and you might find them very useful.

If you have questions, just ask.
