A New Guy

[Bill Oder]

Well ladies and gentleman, a lurker is stepping out. I recently got back into woodworking and have not turned since I was in high school.
<o></o>
I am outfitting the shop, and I’m lucky to have a WoodCraft within about a half an hour of the house.<o></o>

Reading all the archives and keeping up with the current posts have helped tremendously.<o></o>

Keep it up, I’m learning everyday….<o></o>

Here is a look at the first pen I have ever turned. Came off the lathe two weeks ago.

Welcome to the dark side Bill :). Won't find a better place to hang your hat. Glad you realize that we all like pictures. You catch on quick:D . Nice pen too.:)

[Pat Salter]

Welcome to the creek, have fun, keep the pics coming and.....Oh, yeah, nice pen;)

[John Hart]

You may think your lucky, but you will soon find out it is a curse, it may even cause you to put the house up for sale, move out, get out of town.
Time will prove me right.:eek:

Hang around you'll like this place,

Bill.>>>>>>>>>>>:)

Thanks Guys for the warm welcome...

Bill... The curse of "WoodCraft" has struck. Every time I walk into that place it seems my checkbook or wallet is a lot lighter as I exit. :D

Again... Thanks for the welcome, now I will sit back and learn.
