This is the first comment so I should win
It was 0 comments when I started! No fair!
I've only just joined the Online Membership and have already found answers to questions that have puzzled me for a while. Trial and error is far more expensive than this membership!
Woodturning magazine with Mark Baker as editor is a great magazine. I look forward to it and Mark's comments and projects.
Love to get the book.
I would love this book.
I would love this book also.
What an excellent incentive to stay turning at our club. Seems like I'm the only who isn't a Turner. Pick me! Pick me!
Looks like a great book with a lot of ideas.
Looks like a good book for that quick present or thank you gift.
My wife keeps bugging me to make something on my lathe. Maybe this will get me going.
Sometimes I think you should be the last to comment in order to win. BUT I have short term memory problem (as well as a long term memory problem) so I'd probably forget.
Looks like a great book.
I hope I win.
Thank you.
This is a great concept for a book. I for one am always looking for project ideas.
Looks like a fantastic book!
Boys, Don't you think a girl should win this book? After all you're all so big and strong and capable, while I'm just a wimpy girl who can't possibly learn to turn more without the help of this book. Or a few of you big strong guys!! No wait hubby wouldn't like any big strong guys showing up!
Nice
Looks exciting. Hope I win...
Me, Me, me! Just bought a lathe and could use the instruction, as well as the inspiration.
I see there's a honey of a project on the cover!

My birthday is December 14, please make this book my very needed birthday present. I will be celebrating the big 65.
Saw this book in an email the other day and thought it would provide some nice projects. I would like it on my resource shelf.
Given how precious shop time is, this book seems like it might be perfect in presenting creative projects that can be completed using reasonable amounts of it. I can assure you this book would see plenty of use in my shop. Thank you.
Tools are sharp and ready to cut. All I need is a weekend project!
These look like some very nice projects. I don't know if I could reserve them for weekends though!
I'm on my way this morning to buy my first lathe, this book would be a great addition. Can't wait to see it in the mail!!!
Perfect winter time reading...

this book should be a very good intro to woodturning, for amateurs like me and for returning pros. would love to have this as primary reference for the trade and field.
Weekend projects, just what I needed. Will probably find new ideas or new designs.
Looks like a great book. I hope it makes each step clear as I am a new lathe owner.
Cheers

Please put me down for a chance at this great guide book
I completed my Underhill designed spring pole lathe. Made a couple Shaker round stands. This looks like just what I need to go forward with more fun and games. Always appreciate the help I have gotten in the past on the discussion board.
