We will spent the next few weeks designing, constructing, and finally turning a bowl. Don't let the term bowl fool you, these will be beautifully carved, hand crafted, hardwood creations that you will cherish for years to come. Using a lathe is a very safe and easy process when taught how to use it properly, and can turn into a very addictive hobby.

All over the web, especially YouTube there are fantastic videos explaining the basics of how to use chisels properly, methods for finishing and every other aspect of wood turning. On this page there are several great videos, and it is recommended you watch each one before you begin using a lathe.
