I've been asked by professional wood turning artist, Steve Sinner to assist him with a week long class on ( creating & embellishing Deep Hollow Vessels ) at Marc Adams School of Woodworking this fall. I got to say I'm really looking forward to it & just had to tell some one.:D

That's a very nice gloat right there! I can do a wood gloat and a tool gloat, but I don't think I'll ever be able to gloat like that one! Nice!

Thanks everyone. I am excited about the opportunity. I have to credit Steve for my turning & finishing skills, he's really taken me in under his wing. Steve has been very generous to me over the last 4 plus years teaching me his techniques . As many of you know I work with him in his studio 1 or 2 days a week. We've done over 75 collaborative pieces together, and have done club demos together. But this will be the first time doing anything like a full week class.

Thanks again everyone for the encourging words. I'm sure I'll have a report when I get home from my trip. It's not until the end of October so it will be awhile before I have my report.
