In the process of moving to Southern Pines. I have always had a love affair with wood and with creating however my experience is mostly with carpentry/construction and some decoy carving. I tend to collect wood from the farm and other ventures I am involved in and would like to start learning wood turning and other woodworking skills in my near retirement age and to start utilizing some of my wood cache. I have a shop full of tools and and can build about anything, not necessarily good, but I have the rough skill set. Would like to start with wood turning classes or a mentor or private instructor in the Moore County area, willing to pay and/or contribute or just hang out and observe.
