new saying hello

[cornucopia]

hello all- i'm new on here so thought i'd better say hello.
i'm a 30 years young woodturner from leicestershire, i've been turning for 11 years and cant see it ever stopping- i absolutley love it.
i'm married with one daughter aged 3.
I turn mainly faceplate work and I use mainly green wood, my favourite things to turn are hollow forms.

Mornin' cornucopia, and welcome aboard. As Graham said it is good to see some young blood arriving. Now I know who to call on if I need a hand in my dotage.

Looking forward to seeing some photo's of your work when you find time.
