I appreciate everyone's input on my prior posts regarding lathes and dust collectors as I consider jumping into woodturning as a hobby.
Given that it will be a hobby for me - I am trying to figure out what I will do with all of the things I create. I know it will take me a long time to make something that someone would find desirable (so much to learn) and I will enjoy learning/practicing/getting better.
Once I am able to make some decent looking things - what will I do with them?? I have no plans/desire to try selling the items (assuming that I ever get good enough to be worthy of this!). Honestly - this is keeping me from pulling the trigger on a lathe purchase. Do I just turn for the pure enjoyment and throw the results back into the woods behind my house? Really scratching my head on this.
So, hobbyists - what do you do with all of your turnings???
Thanks in advance for the thought starters.
