I'm in the best part. Just kidding. I'm in Cookeville. A nice long drive from Memphis.

First opaque painted wood turning I've liked.

>I'm a big detractor of painting wood turnings so you cannot see the beauty of the grain, but this piece REALLY works. Great job.

Tony - Memphis

>Yeah, it is nice up in that area. Stopped there once or twice up and dwon 40. I went to UT for a year and my folks live in High Point, so I've passed by that exit a few times! Last time I was up that way I was on my way to Sevierville for a class at Lonnie Bird's. That was in Oct. and it was really nice up there. Out the door before the sun rose and enjoyed the drive out in the country to his place very much. Had some good meals in Sevierville/Pigeon Forge area despite the traffic that time of year. Its much more crowded and too flat on our end.

There wasn't any beautiful grain in that piece of wood. I paint and dye a lot of things but never a piece of good wood. If the grain, color or whatever is there I think the wood should remain wood not paint.
