    Hello Christos
    It has been a long time since I have done any woodwork, maybe something to save for my retirement life.

    Hi from New Zealand,
    At least when you do decide to make something from wood, the tools will be sharp .
    Biggest thing for any beginner to get right at the start. Have mentored a few beginner turners lately and they have found that sharp tools just make the whole job go easier.
    Cheers Ian
