That would put you somewhere in your '80s...

Ya old coot...

I find myself away from the lathe for extended periods, too, and have
to re-learn a lot each time (especially that damned SKEW!) but it
doesn't take that long to shake the cobwebs out of the synapses, does
it?

I got back on recently to produce some work for a craft show in the
Vancouver BC area (darling mother does the selling and takes half the
$$. Works perfectly.)

Some of the stuff is on Flickr at

91767628/ if you care to have a look. Nothing earth-shattering or
terribly innovative, but good honest pieces nonetheless.
