Hi all

I am a very new wood turner based in Sussex... had my lathe for 7 weeks now and have just turned my first pens.

The main thing I have found is that I needed to sort out my shed!!!

Now acquired a bench grinder (handy for making things sharp!) and band saw and some gouges etc.... amazing how quickly space gets used up!

Just thought I would introduce myself here..... and I apologise in advance if my questions seem too basic!

Cheers

Steve

Hi and welcome Steve you may have seen that there are no silly questions the only silly thing besides this lot on here is not to ask and not learn
