Well guys, when I was asked to write up some information about myself and send some pictures of my turnings I was moved. At first naw then yep and then my thought was well I never actually introduced myself so it only seemed fair that the good folks at Woodturner's Resource should know a little about me. To have this honour of being a featured member is really special!! This Net space place is such a great spot to have some real meaningful interaction. Thank you for the honour.

I find it interesting each month to read how we are all from different backgrounds but have a commonality of our love for turning and the beauty of wood.
