My name is Phil, I’ve been turning about a year now. I use an old craftsmen that I got off Craigslist. It works well, but I wish it had variable speed without having to change the belt. I’m currently building some jigs to sharpen my tools and am also working on making bowls without busting out the bottom. Anyways, I just wanted to say hi and I’m looking forward to learning more.

Well I didn’t make the title correctly
