Hello everyone, my name is Stewart and I am a rotationalwoodengineeraholic! Thanks for letting me join your site (and what a site it is)
Been spinning wood for quite a while now, I have my man cave down the garden and my beloved Hegner along with other bits of associated machinery/toys/whim purchases.
I have put a couple of pictures on of my latest piece, a 6 inch high earring holder with a box in the bottom, done for a friend for his daughter in America.
Now I have retired I have been looking to enhance my skills and whilst I have made a few wooden pens in the past, I have never tried Acrylic, so thought why not give it a go, last week I went to the Axminster Nuneaton 10 Turners thingy, and had a long chat with Trevor who helped me no end, so bought some blanks and will give it a go. I will let you know how I get on! Though any tips would of course be gratefully received.
I have bought some bullet pen kits as my other hobby is airgun shooting and the guys at the club have been pestering me for them, again will put up some piccies when I have done them.
Well that's it for now, I am so I have a million questions but can't think of them at the moment.
PS, no idea why the piccies are upside down, they are right way up on my computer!
