great mag for newbies

[nev]

picked up the wrong woodturning magazine at the newsagents yesterday #-o but for any newbies out there thinking of diving into the sometimes murky waters of turning it could be of great help.
it has/ is a guide to how much space and kit is required, what to look for when buying your first lathe, which tools you may need, choosing chucks, using the tools and even a few projects.
its almost like someone has taken a look at the forum and printed a mag with the answers to the most commonly asked questions!
so if anyones interested its 'complete guide to woodtuning' (practical woodworking) and on the shelf now.

Thanks for the tip off Nev. I have managed to locate a copy, and for a newby such as myself, it's an excellent read.
