Week 6 

Right the 'Go Big or Go Home' extension to this challenge that I set for myself was to make a bowl...so far, I've not managed to go that far but I am getting to grips with turning smaller items...

Week 5

Yes - this was the week that a wood lathe arrived and couldn't wait to get turning!  My aim is to make a bowl that I will eat my cereal out of but baby steps for now...I decided to start with a gift...

Week 4

Right everyone...it's time to take this up and notch.  I'm raising the stakes because the government has changed the lockdown timeline, yes everyone, it's time 'To Go Big, or Go Home ...oh, you're already at home!'

Week 3

Nothing's broken yet, although the light fitting looking like it might take a knock...but next week when I start juggling flaming torches...we might need to update the risk assessments?!?  Have no fear, I'm not likely to be heading to the circus in a hurry...well, maybe to be a clown but not a juggler...

Week 2

OK - a better week as I feel as though more progress has been made and I can actually see where I'm heading...my worry is that the next step will require a lot more perseverance and time spent picking up beanbags off the floor...!

Week 1

I've had a few moments of triumph but many moments of picking up beanbags from the floor...
