Hello Turners,
First off I'm 41 years old and my occupation is Industrial Ironworker and Rigger. I live just outside of Beaumont Texas. I've been turning for almost 3 years. My first lathe was a small Wen that my wife gifted me for Christmas and my obsession began. Mostly pens and a couple small bowls/ knick knacks. I dabble a bit in making my own hybrid blanks for pens as well. About 2 weeks ago I made my upgrade and furthered my obsession with a new Coronet Herald Lathe from Record Power. I'm very excited about my new membership in the AAW and the opportunity to learn more and hopefully help others.
