Good on you Joash!!!

It's wonderful to see a young bloke seriously bitten by the woodturning bug.

I've been absolutely obsessed by woodturning since the first day I got on a lathe back at school in Year 8. That would have been when I was about 14 I figure. I still remember the exact time, which lathe I was on, who showed me the ropes etc.

Most people wouldn't get it, but I know all the turners here would. Once you fall in love with a lathe, you're bitten for life!!!

Mate, you get there, and turn your heart out! If anyone has negative comments, just PM me their details and I'll hand deliver a bunch of shut the .... up !!!!

Keep the passion alive. It's great to see! There's worth things in life to get addicted to (though sometimes my wife wonders.....)

Congradulation!!!!

[Auzzie turner]

Thanks a lot guys, Ohhhhh!! I just can't wait. I will be going for an interview with Geoff and Joe at Carbatec this afternoon to work out the details. Let you know about that later. I will definately have a digital camera taken along, so I can put some shots on the internet.

@ Timbernut,
I'll let you know if anyone says any negative comments. ---Poor guys

Thanks for the comments,

Have fun matey!
I went to the Brisbane show for the first time this year, and had a ball!
Went on the last day, as i live a fair way from Brizzy, but came away with a ripper lathe and chuck and bits and peices at good prices. The best part of it was the demo's, and you are going to be doing that!! Congratulations, and I reckon you will love it. I really enjoyed talking to all the old timers, who are top nothch woodworkers. If you get a chance, check out the woodturners clubs. They usually have some felas turning as well. Enjoy!
