Santa wants me to turn....PIC..it really happened

[Gary Kvasnicka]

She brought me a Rikon mini lathe, my brother-in law added chisels from PSI. Last month she treated me to a beginners class at the local Woodcraft. I feel like I have been "pushed" into the vortex. I admit that it didn't take much of a shove. I must have been a very good boy this year, or just lucky I married the right girl.
Hopefully I will have some acceptable output to display here before next Christmas. I have been lurking & learning here for awhile, Thanks and Merry Christmas to all

I'd say! Lathe, tools and also a class!

You are now in debt to provide some wood turnings!

Fun aint it?

Look forward to seeing your first project. Good luck and Merry Christmas!

[Jim Underwood]

Don't matter if you were pushed or sucked into the Vortex, we'll take it.

Merry Christmas, and start making some shavings!

Congrats on the lathe, tools and class. Sounds to me like you better hang onto that girl.

You know the rule. No pictures, it didn't happen. We want pictures.

Congratulations, great gloat both one the lathe and the LOYL.

Does she have a sister, oh wait never mind I've already got one. Hmmm now to have yours teach mine. How bout lunch for the two!!! Great gloat but hollow seeing there is no proof it actually happened. Nice try though, and welcome to the vortex, if in fact you are actually in it.

Congratulations on the new toys (um I mean tools). Watch out though, my wife did the same thing to me last Easter and has a been pushy about getting bowls for friends and family

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Gary.........Congrats! Like you, I was pushed into the Vortex! It's a kick....the closest thing to instant gratification I've found yet! And don't worry.....it's only money!
