I have a very old lathe and while I have done turning on it There is a awful lot of things I don't know. This certainly would fill in the blanks.

Re: UPDATE: The Foundations of Better Woodworking by Jeff Miller

I have read a lot of Jeff's articles in FWW and like them very much. Does it help that I live in Chicago too.

Re: Timber Frame Work Shop

This is one incredible shop. One of the nicest ones I have seen. Did you design the building yourself or did you modify a plan of some sort? How did you learn the timber frame joinery. I have a number of books on the subject but it looks like a daunting task. Congratulations.

Re: Poll: What hand tools are on your holiday wish list?

I have been a woodworker for about 30 years and always used power tools. I have retirement looming and more time. I have gotten the itch to use hand tools. The LN planes have a particular interest for me. I also have a mediocre set of chisels that have served well but a new set is surely on my wish list.
