My CL4 has an input on the speed controller for a foot stop looks like the old phono style jack. Have a look at yours. Should be able to pick one up relatively cheap.

Attractive looking piece. May I ask, what paint do you use Derek?

WOW! Great turning there. How many screws did it take to take that beast?!! Natural edge bowls really do look fantastic after they're have been coated.

Hi Chris and welcome. You'll find great experience and suggestions from the guys above, I find this forum very informative. My only input...have fun, stay safe!

Great bowl there Stiggy and beautiful finish. I too would be keen to see your jig, Mark from the forum very kindly sent me info on his jig set up and I wondered how comparable yours was. Keep up the great work.

Amazing piece there Bob, imagine that took some time to achieve! May I ask what finish you used?

Laburnum, what a wonderful finish it has! Good going. Be interested to see any apples you may have.

Great man cave and lovely looking lathe sir!

Great piece, like the solid look of it due to it not being fully hollowed out. What do you use as a finish?

Hi Gav, Welcome! I have found this forum a great source of experience and knowledge. I guess as I am also new to this I would recommend reading as much as possible but spending plenty of time getting to know your tools. Look forward to seeing your work.

Very nice job there, may I ask I you will be applying a finish to it?

I'd be chuffed to bits with that! Agree with guys on the foot though.

As Mike said above... Elegant!

As a beginner, what is coring?

What a lovely piece of wood, look forward to seeing the final piece.
