Got a little work done

Spent the morning getting my wolverine sharping system set up in the shop. Spent the rest of the afternoon roughing out some silver maple for a set of bowls. Cutting a 10" x 4" blank just about pushes the limits on my little delta lathe but I had fun.

Gonna get some good pics of a few of the projects we worked on in the workshop down in Provo when I get some time hopefully tomorrow. I'll add it to the "To Do List" with the rest of the projects people want.

Getting Started, again.

This last week I was able to attend a workshop down at Craft Supplies USA in Provo. It was a basic woodturning workshop taught by Dale Dallon. It was fantastic. I highly recommend those workshops to anyone. It was well worth the cost 100 times over. I got a chance to meet a bunch of great guys in the class, some from here in Utah and some form out of state.

After getting back to life I've started redoing my small workshop getting it more organized to allow me to be a bit more productive in my turning. It's slow going for now but hopefully I'll get it into shape by the end of the week.

Let it begin.

Welcome to my woodturning blog. I'm a beginning turner so while the work may be rough I intend for to to get much better. Feel free to stick around and see how it goes for yourself.
