Hey all, Ive been a member of AAW for years but havent' posted in the forums for years. I've been turning for 23ish years off and on. I've shown and sold at art festivals and taught privately and at Woodcraft of Pittsburgh, which brought my turning journey full circle as I too my first turning class at Woodcraft. I love turning bowls. I am currently retired, my last job was Assistant Manager at Woodcraft of Pittsburgh. While there I learned so much about all kinds of woodworking and have expanded out of only turning. For 2023, I have decided to finish (or burn) all the projects taking up space in my 8 x 10 ft shop. So far I have made huge in roads. Making room for all the new projects!
 
Howdy and welcome back from Texas. Looking forward to seeing some of your work.
