For those that don't know about this we have a complete lathe setup with chucks, turning tools, sharpening equipment and everything needed to decide if you really have the turning bug or if it just isn't your thing. Goodwill Lathe photos
Let us know if you'd like to be the nextvictim volunteer to try out turning without having to spend the major investment to get started. You will need to work with @DTBoss to arrange the transportation of the lathe and its supporting features moved to your location. This is a great opportunity to 'try before you buy'.
We typically allow members to try out the Goodwill Lathe for approximately 3 months and then pass it on to another member so they can have enough time to decide if they want to continue to pursue turning as a hobby and then let somebody else benefit from the experience.
Criteria to be considered the next member assigned the lathe:
