Hello, I am very new wood turner (started about 5 months ago) hoping to learn and develop my skills. I have turned mostly end grain boxes but hope to get better at bowl turning and eventually venture into hollow forms. I turn on my Laguna Revo 1836. All of my training has been via you tube so I have a lot to learn. When im not turning wood, I work as an engineer and a mother to a 4 year old boy and a 5 year old husky in St Augustine, Fl

Welcome to the forums. Looks like you have a good start. To give you hands on answers and lots of good natured fun a turning club is the answer. There should be one near. If you do not know of one go to AAW site using the main site button at the top of the page and search for clubs.
