Hi I'm Brian I'm 40yrs old. My dad's been a woodworker and his whole life.
And I learned from learn from him.The art of woodworking. But when it came to wood turning, That is something he doesn't really do.Which is I rhonic , Because he's a tool and die tradesmen. So for wood turning I basically been self taught using aids like youtube and the internet and a couple books but for the most part this trial in error. I'm just a hobbiest wood Turner. With lots still to learn. When Searching for information.I always end up on the AAW forums. So I thought it was time to sign up.. I just upgraded to a Rikon 18x24 lathe about 3 months ago.
