I got a cheap mini wood lathe at harbor freight over the weekend, with their liquidation sale and an extra 40% off clearance sticker price with my membership this thing was a steal! Upgraded it with a few parts from Woodcraft and made my very first lathe project! It's a neat little wine bottle stopper made out of Zebrawood. I just need to add a nice finish to it and it will be finished. I'm really excited to learn wood turning, so if anyone has any tips, tricks or suggestions I would love to hear them
