Default Lathe lessons

Two suggestions:

1 Go to the web site for the AAW www.woodturner.org and look for chapters
near you.
2. Go to youtube and search on woodturning videos, there are a great many
of them covering many topics.

Thank you.
I've Googled the subject and picked up any number of tips but I'm really
interested in a book or video (preferably) that might be available.
I've located a local chapter of Woodturners and I will be contacting them.
A neighbor, whose husband passed away a few months ago, *gave* me a
Craftsman lathe that's seen very little use. It's about 25 years old.
If I find myself enjoying the craft, I'll be willing to invest in a much
higher quality machine.
I have a fairly well equipped woodworking shop but have never attempted
woodturning.

Thanks again,
Max
