Well, that is probably the best of gloats!! Heck, anyone can buy tools, but having that kind of opportunity is rare - CONGRATS!!

Im jelous. I did talke to him on the phone once though. I called his number on the website to order a sharpening jig and he answered the phone. I was just in the beginning stages of my turning career. He was very nice and patient with me. Jared

Congrats. That is one person I would love to have a class with. I have a couple of his DVD's and his hollowing tools.
