Hi..
I'm Klaus and I live in Hanau which is close to Frankfurt. I started woodturing in 2005 with a 2day Course at a woodturning School (called dns) and I was hooked.
I'm actually already member of the AAW for a longer time, cos I was Always interested in what american woodturners are doing and I like the Magazine ;-)

Here are a few pics of my Workshop:

I'm also a member of the german drechsler-Forum, but I thought ist a good idea to participate here as well cos this way my english doesn't get so rusty..

I'll Show some of my work in the Picture Gallery later this week, i Need to sort them and i Need to get accustomed to the mechanism used here, and how it all works..

Have a great week !
best regards
Klaus
