It’s way past time to introduce myself. I’m a not quite retired farmer in central MO. I began turning on a 10” PowerKraft lathe 50+ years ago. I remember making quite a lot of shavings but only a couple of candle sticks and lamps to show for it.
After a decades long pause I’ve now gotten back into turning ( mostly bowls) for about five years now. I’ve made contact with a club but still looking forward to making to an in person meeting.
I have already gleaned a tremendous amount of helpful information by following the discussions. Thanks so much to all the experienced and talented turners who are willing to share their knowledge!
I hope to soon get to meet club members and hopefully have the opportunity to accelerate my learning with some personal guidance to better take advantage of my new-to-me “ real” lathe, a Jet 1642.
