Turned some rings

I burned a little bit of vacation time today to check on my bees and play in the workshop. The shop still is not wired, so I had the DC and lights on one 15 amp house circuit and the lathe on another. Good thing I didn't rewire the DC to 220v yet. I'm still quite new to turning and wanted to...
