Default Ten ways to leave your local mentor, musing about taking courses(long)

Although I am not a master turner (when I can turn a bowl that doesn't
need sanding, and I don't have to use calipers, maybe) or a master
teacher, or master demonstrater, I just love to do it. A standard
disclaimer I use is something like......... What I am showing you are
the skills that I have picked up over the years. I have learned a lot
by experimenting (I think that is called trial and error), and have
been influenced by a lot of other turners. I don't do anything to the
extent that I do it the same way every time. I reserve the right to
change my mind on how I do things at any time. What I do may or may not
work for you, but hopefully it will give you some ideas of things that
you may want to try, as well as different ways of doing things.
All of God's children are different, and some of us are more different
than others.
