Somebody else ate the fruit bars , I just saved the box for my threads...

Even with the jewelers glasses I still couldn't salvage that taper for one of the guys. It ended up a do over. Do overs are much better than settling for less than perfect.

We are doing the classes upstairs with just one section of lathe bed. Its much more comfy upstairs where its warmer , there's a bathroom and a cofffee maker. The downstairs bench just has everything piled on it for now.
In two weeks when we do the thread finishing, We'll need to use the downstairs bench , so it will be organized. That will be a good time to take pics of my setup.

Between the Clemens lathe and the temp controlled drying box , its a top of the line pro set up. I or Paparazzi Chef Chris (Definition...From Italian: [papaˈrattso] photographers often described as an unacceptable annoyance ) will post some "authorized" pics of my set up.
