Hey Darrell,
This is very much like one of Arch's musings. Are you stirring things
like Arch does. Personally, I really couldn't hope to have a better
model. This is fun! Good job, carry on, I'll most likely kill you in
the morning (the dread pirate Roberts from themovie,
The Princess Bride).

The very first thing I ever turned, as well as the next dozen or so,
were mushrooms. I still have maybe 4 or 5 laying around the house and
shop. Within a month it was bowls and the occasional spindle turning
of tool handles.

Mac, this is your fault. You got me thinking which is always a
dangerous
thing. Where should a person start in turning? Most start with
spindles, but
a skew is the best spindle tool going and notthe easiest tool to
learn.
Bowls are a lot easier and if you use Oland tools both cheaper and
less
scary to make. It is harder to get a catch with an Oland tool. I will
put a
thought start up on the blog about this too if anyone cares to join
me. It
is easier to archive on the blog and this should be good stuff for
newbies.
By the way, I start first timers on tealights and bowls.
