I’m Larry from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. I have only been turning for about 2 months. I will be attending my first chapter (Central Virginia Woodturners) meeting this Saturday.
I am acquiring good tools & learning how to use them.
Made twig pots for Christmas for family members. Here’s one of them.

Looking for ward to learning more.

Welcome! Your AAW chapter will be invaluable in turning- demos, mentors, etc.
Went up I-81 last June to Pennsylvania. Beautiful country.
