LTI = Life Threatening Incident I guess.
Now , as someone once remarked of you and your toy lathe:
DO YOU REALLY DO THIS FOR A LIVING?????
BTW, shavings are one thing, dust is another matter altogether. I note you didn't post a pic of that big exhaust fan too.
One last thing: old Aust. expression. Come in spinner.Last edited by jefferson; 16th June 2010 at 07:07 PM. Reason: spelling

Pat, I'm holding one tiny ace up my sleeve at the moment:
- 's tutoring work is on display at the Exhibition this year. If I fail, so does he!!!
(A wise Vic Wood once said that if the student is failing, so is the teacher. I run this one out quite a bit when my chisels are misbehaving.... ).

I can appreciate where Vic was coming from with that observation, but let me say as a lifelong teacher it over-generalises.
Some students never get it. Some get it on the spot. And some get it some time down the track.Cheers, Ern

Yes, Ern, I am sure there have been times when was at a loss when my turning was woeful. Perhaps he is less worried these days???? I hope so.
Yes, Tea Lady, the last 12 months have been difficult. The pair are a contrast in styles if nothing else. But one thing is for sure, they both have the same ear for bad turning techniques, mistakes and uphill cutting.....
Interestingly, I think I have taken a little bit from both mentors and have made a composite brew.
As for failure, that is not an option. I get my benchmark scores at the Exhibition this year and must better them in 2011. I need 170 points. If not this year, maybe next. Or the year after.

Has everyone forgoten that a tidy shed/workshop is a sign of a sick mind?
I try and do new things twice.. the first time to see if I can do it.. the second time to see if I like it
