>I'll second that, Gary. Just arrived back in Kennebunkport, Maine from the Albany symposium filled with techniques, ideas, inspiration, etc. It was WELL worth the investment of time and money to join the 250 other turners in learning and sharing.

Thanks to the WC folks who offered me some advice before I left for my first symposium.

Here's a web page photo of one piece of work by Giles Gilson, a phenomenal designer and wood artist who gave the evening talk at the Totally Turning symposium. While you're on the site, explore EVERYTHING else on the museum site's menu on the left including the demo videos and 360 degree views of turnings. It's one of the most amazing turning sites I've seen. Lots of design inspiration.

Now for some alone time with my lathe.
