>Sean, I suggest that you become a member of WoW, World of Woodturners. It's a site that you'd really enjoy. There's lots of photography information there, along with photo albums with many hundreds of turning photos. I can sign you up if you wish. Just send me your e-mail address.

>Do a search for Mark Kauder's post. He built one a couple of months ago and I'm pretty sure he posted a picture of it.

I've written a few articles and have been working on a web site. I have most of the info on my home computer which is down temprarily. We hope to have it up after Wednesday barring unusual circumstances. Send and e-mail to johnclucas@charter.net. My e-mail still recieves it just has a tendency to lock up when I try to send.

If you happen to be going the the Southern States Symposium in Gainesville I will be doing a demo there as well as one at the AAW symposium.

>Thanks Russ. I've changed my booth slightly. Instead of the weights at the bottom of the 2 side panels I put a screw through the middle of the top panel and attached it to the side panels. This lets me swing the side panels out. The whole assembly is free standing. I did have to glue the top bar and corners together.

Just to see how well it works I shot a Box elder round hollow vessel for a friend using my professional lighting and equipment. Then I shot it using my homemade booth and quartz lights. It's very similar. I will post the photos when my computer gets back up.
