Hi, from a kind of newbie.

Alan Rowe:
Hi all. I've been looking at this forum for a while so I thought I'd better join you.
I started turning back in 1994. I went on a course on to learn the basics, bought myself a cheap Taiwanese lathe and slowly improved. In 96 I changed jobs. I had my lathe stolen in 97, so bought a Record Power CL1. Work and family took too much of my time so turning took a back seat. I did odd bits but nothing serious. I have recently retired, moved and set up a decent workshop in a large single garage. I went on a refresher course and joined a club, just before lockdown. I am now starting at the beginning again and thoroughly enjoying my time in the workshop. Looking forward to learning from members of the forum.  Alan Rowe.
