Hi Just joined AAW and the Forum for the wealth of info available to a new turner. I took 2 weeks of turning classes back in 2019 before Covid but never got around to buying a lathe and tools. Finally bought the lathe and tools this January 2025. The AAW site and this forum have been very helpful in helping me remember what I learned. This week I successfully turned a small walnut bowl that I had rough turned from green wood in April of 2019. It was so dry it didn't even measure any moisture content on my meter.
