I was on here last when I first was given a very old Homecraft Delta lathe. I had no idea what I was doing. I am please to say I took a class from Woodcraft, watched and am still watching You-tube and I have made several bottle stoppers, a pencil cup and bowl. Started to try pens, but decided to stick to one thing until I get better. Here are some photos: The bottle stopper is not a great photo, but you get the point. Pencil cup and little bowl are from my neighbors tree. I think it was oak.

Anyway, I am so hooked I cannot believe it. I am out there almost everyday.:D

Congratulations on your lathe and on your spinning fun. I'm with you on the fun of trying different things AND on the idea of doing one form over and over to practice.
