Any wood turners in here ?

[Mercula]

Just curious. I picked up a mini lathe last year , I've made a ton of pens , my folks visited recently and got me a couple diff chucks. I was just messin around earlier and made a small cup . I need to grab a little more gear and I'd like to try a couple bowls.
Here are a couple pens. Green one is dyed spalted Tamarind.
second one is a stabilized maple burl. Both have a CA finish.

Those look pretty nice.

I have not done it in a long time but I recently picked up a lathe and plan to start again soon.

I have a mini lathe and would love to figure out how to use it! If you ever had some free time to help me get it set up that would be great

Yup, If I remember correctly the woodshop teachers name was Mr. H.- Harrington I think? Then there was the metal shop teacher- Mr. Ment.
