Hi,

I am from San Juan, Puerto Rico and I am just starting my journey into woodturning. I have taken a couple of classes and watched lots of YouTube. I recently finished my small workshop and gathered some wood so I hope to do a lot more woodturning soon. My projects are simple right now but I am trying to absorb all the knowledge I can, and make some of the beautiful things that you all do.

Attached is a baseball bat I made for my brother's 65th birthday. Right now I am working on a mahogany wedding goblet with integrated rings for my niece's weeding. Trying to figure out how to finish the inside so it can handle occasional wine.

I am planning on going to Chattanooga, so hopefully I will meet many of you.

Se you all.
