Hi Brett...and welcome!

Seeing as how your new to turning, did you invest in a heavy duty lathe or a smaller one to begin with?:?

Cheers,

Ed :D

Hi Ed

I bought a small Record lathe to start with cause i was only looking at spindle turning and doing some small legs.

I would like to upgrade at some point so i can do some bowls and bigger stuff like that but need to get a shed first.



For all those that want to look here is a couple of pens that i have made so far

My mrs thought it would be good to see if i could sell a few.
