I'm not sure what all the fuss is about :dontknow:. We turners aren't conspiring to turn anyone to the dark side. Our spin on the woodworking profession is completely noble. It is a shame that the "flat workers" skew our intentions. We just want everyone to have the same moving experience that we have when we turn. The shear joy of woodturning is hard to explain, but suffice it to say, there is something special about turning the blank canvas of a block of wood into our own little works of art. So, scrape together a few dollars, get a lathe and join our [strike]dark[/strike] forces. There is power in numbers!
