Greetings to all. My name is Daniel. I've been living in upstate NY for about a year and recently started turning wood. My neighbor is an incredible woodturner, has an incredible studio and offers classes, I've been lucky enough to use his studio and learn from him.

Still very much a novice but I'm very much interested in exploring the possibilities of this craft. Looking forward to learning more from this forum.

Here is Carl's Oneway lathe that I am learning on:

Here is the cheap craigslist pickup that I am practicing on in my garage. Looking forward to getting good enough to justify upgrading.
