Hi, I'm looking for a good web site on lathe work. I need to know about lathes in general before I sink a lot of money into one, then advise on how to use one for simple projects. Maybe a good bet would be a book or magazine; any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks, Jerry
You're on a good resource. Do a Google search under the "Groups" link for keywords having to do with your questions and see what you get. Here's the link:

Russ is right there is no better book for newbies than Kieth Rowleys "Woodturning a foundation course"
Sadly Kieth passed away last week.
