Very cool and thanks so much for sharing. I enjoy turning but I only seem to do what comes as either a repair or an order so I don't spend the time I'd like on it. I'm very excited to continue moving forward on my Legacy's however and once I get our kitchen cabinets completed I promised myself some play time too. I am looking forward to more from you and anything you'd care to share is ok by me.
