I've always wanted a lathe in my shop and now I finally have one! Rockler outfitted me with their Midi lathe and Peter Brown (from Shop Time) flew out to spend the day with me and teach me how to use it? Who better to learn from than Peter Brown?!? It was a fun-filled day where I learned all the basics of woodturning and managed to create an awesome screwdriver handle from a hybrid black walnut and resin blank. And there's even a few brass flat-head surprises that are cast inside the resin! Whether you're just learning to turn or you're already super skilled on the lathe, I think you'll enjoy this video. Check it out and let me know in the comments what you think of my first attempt!

Thanks to Rockler for sponsoring the video!
