Does anyone know if it's possible to get professional training for lathecutting?

Thanks!

I would love to hit up a lathe camp. Still trying to work with my Presto K-8.

Yup. Gridlock is right. Len is the man to train you on the Scully.

Come bearing gifts ($) when you approach him. He's in a tight spot with finances and has to move studios soon, so it is the best way to insure he will be able to make time for you
