Shop Talk Live 43: Richard Raffan Comes Stateside

On this week’s edition of Shop Talk Live, we kick off the show with a special announcement about a chance for readers to purchase the lathe used by celebrated turner Richard Raffan in a new series of turning videos currently being shot at Fine Woodworking magazine. Then later on in the show, Raffan sits in for an interview with Ed Pirnik and Asa Christiana.

Next up, we tackle your woodworking questions concerning router tables, bench planes, dust collection, and just how much shop is enough!
