Jet 1220 lathe

[Paul.J]

Hello Thomas.
Well done you've done better than my fiest attempts :roll:
I will now try and explain how i do it with the thumnails.
When you have logged into PB,click on BROWSE This will let you look at the piccys you want in your folder.Click on the piccy than press OPEN When you have selected the piccys you want click on the UPLOADtag.This will bring your piccys to your PB folder.
When the piccy is their,there is a small square box below your piccy,click in this box putting a tick in it.
Then scroll to the bottom of the page where you will see some other boxes,click on the last box saying GENERATE HTML AND IMG CODE.
On the next page click on the third box down.This will copy your piccy.
Now go back to the forum page and just right click and paste,this will put the url in the box.Click on PREVIEW under the box to see if your piccy is their.If it is great.
When you upload more than one piccy you will have to seperate them at the end of each url.
HTH.
Paul.J....................Nice turnings by the way

Hi John, don't get too despondent about the photo's. We've all been there.

Only a month or so ago quite a few of us had to change out photo hosting site as the one we were using packed up, and a lot of us moved to Photobucket.

Try reading through this post from the time we all changed, it takes you through the whole Photobucket thing for placing a 'thumbnail' photo into your posting.

Old post Any more problems just ask.

Hi PaulJ, The top one is Spalted Beech just a plain pot,the bottom one is my first try at turning, and is Pau Amarelo which we call our nut bowl, finish is in walnut oil, at the moment I finish all my work with sanding sealer and woodwax 22, have read this is a good way for beginners.
This hobby is so good, with a lot to learn, and so many options.
It is 02-15 in the morning, the dog got me up!! just had to check to see if I had any replies. will read a Woodturning mag with a cup of tea!!! :-$

Mornin' John, now that you have the photo posting sussed, you have all the more time to spend turning now. It is a lot better using thumbnails IMO, they download that quicker and don't mess the displayed page up on your monitor as much as oversize pics do.

PS - Welcome to the mad house.

I'd like to know how and what you think of the 1220 as it may come to upgrading if the next switch doesn't fix the problem.
