A semester series on wood turning has to start somewhere. In this first video of the series we discuss woodturning, this series, introductions, teaching vs textbooks and a detail overview of the main tools we'll be using in the series (plus alternatives). So welcome to the world of wood turning. A niche of the woodworking craft where it's easy to be successful but a challenge to master.

Future Q&A: On the following Tuesday after each video in this series is released I will do a live Q&A on questions from that video. These streams will start at 8pm CT which is 9pm on the East Coast of the US and 6pm on the West Coast and go for about 45 minutes. Questions will come from comments on the video. Priority being those asked on my Patreon Channel with the rest being from the video comments and live feed.

So the Q&A for this video will be February 9th.
