    I don't know if this is the appropriate place or if Im going about it the right way but I just wanted to introduce myself as a new member. Ive been making mulch on my lathe now for about a year and every once in a while Ill get that fouled up and end up with a bowl or something like that. I had no idea that this site existed untill I was surfing the web one day doing some research. Its good to see there are so many people who share my interest. I have a lot of questions and Ill try not to make everyone sick of me. I signed on a just few days ago and have been lurking in the shadows reading some of the threads. I have found a lot of good answers already.
