You can check out an lumber and exotic wood company.

Search A & M Wood and you should find them. They are only open until lunch on Saturday. Fun place to visit.

Answer to the will it never end : NOPE!

Seems to only get worse.

Bernie,

The one with the high CFM would be the best buy if they are the same price. You wrote that it is 115/220 so that means it can be wired for either voltage. Pretty simple to do as it should...

Brian,

There is a shop fee which covers the wood you use plus any other materials ( about $70). It is the same for everyone whether you were to bring your own wood or not everyone pays the shop...

Brian,

North Knoxville is a fair drive to Arrowmont (1.25 hours?). You will be wasting a lot of time on the road and much of the experience of being at a place like Arrowmont. The price of a room...

Dave,

You should have seen the wood first and said that you would load it into the car\truck for her. My wife See's down trees almost every week and she is sure to tell me about it. Now we live...

I too look after our club's video's. Just before Christmas our local turning dealer had the newest Jimmy Clewes DVD so I bought them for the Club.

I reviewed them all during the holiday's. Top...

If you look at the top of the neck on the right and left side. The left is longer (higher) then the right. If the bottom of the turning was tilted in the lathe to set the peaks dead even...

There has been talk that some of those tools were not tempered at all. Right from the factory they were bad. Take a file a lightly drag it across the gouge. If it cuts then take the gouge back and...

I really like what you have done with this. If there is one item to change it would be the log needed to be tilted to balance the opening just a little bit better. Front to back one can create an...

The story should inspire many for years and years. It could turn into a wood turning folk lore of how one of the greatest turners ever, started turning on his first lathe.

Less than 8 years for...

Nice to see you getting recognized Bill. I do agree with what has been written above, get Bill's video for reference as it is the best on the market in my opinion.
