Found a large River Birch tree that was cut down this weekend and wanted to know if you could turn it? Thanks Tom

I would like to turn some small objects on a few axis can some one point me in the right direction to find a tutorial on laying out the measurements and theory?

Thanks Tom

Brian I would be interest in driving up there one weekend. It would be a good excuse to take my daughter up to the Baltimore aquarium (sp?). Maybe after Easter if that would be a good time for you?...

Keith, I may be able to help in the afternoon if I can get out of class. I just bought a new Jet VS mini lathe and would be willing to bring it along. I'm still a newbie but I am capable of learning...

Thank you,
Tom Wynn

Tom

Kurt, if you still have some, I would like to get a few from you. I can email you my address. I am currently waiting on some pen kits so I have time.

Thanks,
