Hello my name is Jeannie. I’ve been turning for a few years now. My interest started with embellishing the bowls my father would turn. I am now a member of Chesapeake Woodturners along with my father. Although I don’t turn often I do go to various events with the group. Sometimes I don’t get much demo time so I decided last year I was going to paint my lathe girly pink or something of that sort so this year at our annual event I could turn as much as I wanted. So I painted my lathe with lots of flowers. Another women turner came. So we had a her side his side to the event. I even had my 12 yr old granddaughter turning. The only unfortunate issue I had was my lathe motor went up 5 minutes into the demo. Luckily the guys had one more lathe for us ladies to use. My lathe is in the shop getting looked at. Looks like I may need a new motor. Looking forward to getting back on my freshly decorative painted lathe soon.
