You should have seen this coming Ken. First, Dewey is a stand-up kind of guy, and second, I think he let notice of the reciprocal bombing slip once of twice. :)

Way to go Dewey!

Now I have to make a decision:mad:.....Read Wood Turning with Ray Allen by Dale L Nish....or Malcolm Tibbett's book "The Art of Segmented Turning" ....or "Turning Pens and Pencils" by Christensen and Burningham.....

They all three arrived today!

Thanks Dewey! :)

Look at it this way, Ken...segmenting will give you the opportunity to use some other tools in your shop that are probably collecting dust from sanding spinny things or holding up tools and rough blanks. :D Does your significant other know she's not going to be seeing much of you anymore unless she comes out to the shop to visit?

I'm not sure....but when I come in for supper she seems to be smiling more than I remember her doing in the past.....:o
