Been turning since 94 if one bowl in Highschool counts, LOL!!! Got a mini last Dec. and did some ornaments and teeny weeny bowls etc.
Moved up to a Nova DVR and have been trying to get rolling with big bowls but not having success with the "rushed" versions so have to wait for the rough outs to dry. Been doing all kinds of little things like triangle candle holders, square/rolled edge candy dishes - but gave'em away before I did the pictures.
The wands are a hit with the kids, my Wife loves her rings and some of the other stuff was just fun!
Looking at pictures of everyones turnings is one of the best parts so... I'm gonna try and make my contribution.
I'm my own worst critic so don't hold back if you have some tips, advice on form etc. etc.
I forgot to mention that the "other thing" is a bark inclusion vase I didn't like and it started to become a pear... a little out of shape though so I haven't carved a leaf and stem.
