1) Some where I stumbled upon or maybe someone sent me a picture of a
standing tree and after the tree was down and the trunk opened and the
inside carved. (That sentence is a discombobulated but maybe you get
the idea.) Anyway I have uploaded the pictures to a.b.p.w.
2) The alt.crafts.woodturning group is pretty inactive. Does anybody
else know a site where I might learn enough to get started.
Thanks.
I find the turners forum at Sawmill Creek to be very active with lots of folks willing to offer help to folks new to turning.

Took a quick look just now and it does indeed look like a good
prospect. Thanks. Jim

I live in AL and out in the country -if there is such a thing these
days- but based on your suggestion I did a Goggle search and found
some clubs within 50 miles that might work. Long drive but better than
killing time in the house in the winter.
Thanks.
