Joe, I want to offer you my congratulations as well but, given the pieces that you have “turned” out I am not surprised at their selection. It is an honor that is rightly deserved.

Congratulations Joe, what an honor. I agree with them, this is truly one of your finest pieces. The color makes it one of a kind. The true mark of genius would be to see if you could ever duplicate the color.

Very Very Cool Joe! Congratulations! It’s always great to see what you come up with next. As others have already said, it is most certainly well deserved. I’ve just started using the lathe I acquired last fall, and every time I pick up a turning chisel, it becomes increasingly amazing to me how much I don’t know about turning. The fact that you’ve only been turning such a short time makes your recognition even more impressive.

Thanks for letting us know about it.

Nice to see a lumberjock get some well deserved recognition. Nice job!

umm… march 2008? Now, I’m even more impressed with your body of work. Congratulations!
