I am sure there are a lot of you that have discovered you tube but for those of you that have not, there are several good videos on wood turning. I have found several by searching for "wood lathe". There is one fellow that puts up a lot of videos of artist working in many different mediums including wood. It's called "Artist in Residence" It might be worth a look. As a disclaimer---I have not posted anything there so I am not trying to promote myself. Also there is a lot of crapola there on about any subject you care to mention.
