Not bad for a first try.
This is my first time on a lathe. I had a blast!
Enough fun that I bought a lathe! A lathe, the stand and a few tools (they are more expensive than the lathe) and some wood blanks.
My hands are a little sore, found some muscles in my forearms I didn't know I had!..lol

Nice work, and good photo. I always wanted to try wood-turning, so I'm jealous!

Wow, you are good! I used a great grandfather's old lathe a few times, years ago. It was run by a pedal and it took plenty of attention and plenty of strength... and plenty of talent which I never seemed to have. :-)
