Thank you for the add to the forums. I have been turning for about a year and currently I have a Nova Comet II that I work from. I've done quite a few bowls and some vases, odd hollow forms to work on my skills and try to get them up to par. I am still struggling with finishing my work to a super fine polish (or rather one that is acceptable). I look forward to getting a great many ideas and inspiration for new turnings.

I have attached a few of my recent turns and I am always open to critique and comments.
