Creekers,
Another in our midst has had the recent honor of selling a piece to a woodturning VIP. After consulting with another Creeker from those southern streams I am pushing this gentlemen's modesty a bit
Keith Burns sold a piece a couple of weeks ago to Angelo Iafrante the current President of AAW. I know the sales/marketing side of the abyss does not interest Keith so this is even more special.
He did post the piece awhile back http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=47850
Now you know how I know.
Congrats Keith, you are worthy of some accodales for this sale but probably more importantly for your williness to share your encouragement to other turners.

Keith, this is worthy of a BIG CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That was (and still is) a fantastic piece you turned!
I also heard a rumor that when the turning was received that the new owner was very pleased with the addition to his collection.
Congrats Keith!

Keep this in mind...Cothren selling ....Burns selling. We know what classification they'll be in during the next turning contest here!;) :D
Congrats Keith! I always admire your work!
