George, it looks like you have a nice shop in which to work. It is bright and well lit as well as being nicely organized. Like David I do not have a lathe in my shop but do appreciate the abilities of those woodworkers who have mastered this technique. It looks like you have a nice lathe to work with and I am looking forward to seeing your turnings.

Thanks for the pictures. I enjoyed touring your shop.

Hey George,
Sweet shop and lathe…nice one.

My god man, and I thought my shop was small, you are doing some great work there, keep the pics comming!

Oh, and welcome to LJ’s.

A VB36? Holy Mother Of God!!!! That is one sweet machine. How do you like it. Does it live up to the hype? How long have you had it? Any problems? I had a dream, once and I was turnig a bowl from inside the bowl with a machine like that there are endless possibillities. I think the only limitation would be the size of your shop. By the way nice work.

Thank you for all of the “welcome’s”

Andrew: i’ve had it for 9 years now- its a fantastic lathe- i’ve turned everything on it and have never found its limits- its still the only lathe to my knowledge to have plain bearings, they offer whisper quiet perfect turning wether its a huge chunk of wood or a very delicate finial- i’ve never had a problem with it.

-- it can't rain all the time!!

SWEEEEEET!!!!
