I just started turning about 4 months ago.

I have always been fascinated with wood turning. Five or six years ago my wife and I were watching a turning demo and I told her about my fascination and she said buy a lathe. I got a 50’s vintage Craftsman and spent most of my time either swearing at it or fixing it. I didn’t make anything worthwhile so I sold it. Four months ago I got a good deal on a refurbished lathe so I dove back in.

The first three pictures below are of my most recent turned bowl:
