Hello everyone! I've been lurking long enough and felt it was time for a proper introduction. Thanks to my dad, I have been woodworking for some time, but just recently took up woodturning and am really enjoying it. I launched a community knife sharpening side business in late 2019, outside of my day job, that has helped pay for a lathe and supplies.
As for turning, I have made some practice bowls and some spindle type things. I have also made tool handles and spurtles. My goal for 2023 is to make a few things to share here and to take a couple classes this year. I hope is to grow my bowl turning skills over the coming years to be proud to give as gifts and maybe even sell to feed the addiction. I feel like I have a built in audience with my knife sharpening customers that could generate a few dollars and perhaps create some wood sources.
I want to say thank you and that I appreciate all the sharing and experience in this community. I look forward to growing my skills and personal connections in 2023.
