Hi everyone from Waddell, Arizona. I thought it would be cool to mix with fellow turners far away. And you don't get much farther away than the UK.
I've been turning pens and bangles for a while now, and mix it all in with woodworking and jewelry as well. A few stringed instruments and stained glass keeps me busy. I just need to retire from the phone company, and do the things I love to do. Whatta ya think, should I give the boss my resignation? :face:

I retired 4 years ago and wished I had done it sooner. Ask the boss for a photograph so you can hang it on the workshop wall and swear at it when things go wrong!
