About Marty Eargle
- Biography:
- I am a 24 year old student born and raised in North Carolina. After spending the last few years of school studying for a degree in Criminal Justice, I am currently taking a year off to gather my thoughts and return as a Forestry major. I lost all passion of the world of Criminal Justice and as I have always enjoyed being in the woods...my choice made starting college over a little easier.
As for wood working, it has been a hobby of mine since I was a child. Making small crafts and and home projects. In late 2010, I decided to buy myself a wood lathe and start a hobby in turning. I settled on buying the Harbor Freight lathe and basic set of tools. They have been very adequate in learning to tern but I am slowly upgrading tools and will eventually upgrade lathes...but it's slow going on a student's salary but I'll get there.
I have been an avid reader of SMC for a few months now and it has been a key asset in gathering information and technique. I hope to start posting pieces I've turned soon.
