Well, that first lathe didn't last long did it! Have you got a VB36 on order yet or are you going straight for the Titan?
Many of you will not know Woody in person, I am fortunate in that I have met him a few times and had the benefit of his advice and experience as someone who was then new to turning (still am new relatively). He was kind enough to have half a dozen of us newbies round to his house, gave us a days tuition and his delightful wife, Vi, then fed us into the bargain!
He was devasted when he was given the medical news that he could never turn again, thankfully the medical profession is sometimes wrong and we won't begrudge them the caution with which that advice was given, an ex turner is better than a dead turner!
Robbo, your offer was, I suspect more appreciated than you imagine, and if anyone else out there has a few duplicates that they have no further use for I am sure that Woody would appreciate the step back on the ladder to being a fully kitted out turner that he once was. I hope to go and see in early August so if theres anyone in the Herts/Beds area who has anything spare I'd be delighted to pass it on. Otherwise I'll leve it to Woody to divulge his address.
Hope you don't mind me posting this Woody, you've been very kind to alot of people and when life deals you a s h 1 t blow, its time to get a return on your kindness.
