I a man just getting started trying to fallow in my grandfathers foot steps.
I have always wanted to work on a lathe My Grand father and I would hang out in his shops and do projects all the time. As he was getting older he promised me his lathe and I was finally able to get it after 10 years. So this is were my lathe journey begins. We all have to start some where I just thought some of you would have advice for a young guy like me cause my grandpa didn’t have time to show me
All the ins and outs.

Welcome to LJ’s Bob.
I’m happy to see you chose me to be your buddy. The only time I used a lathe was in high school back in 1965. If I had the room in my little shop I would most likely have a lathe today. With that said I’ll be watching for your project post here in LJ’s to see what you come up with. Just take your time; keep safety at the top of your thinking and enjoy the ride!
