    Over here, it's Woodturning: A Foundation Course by Keith Rowley (ISBN:1861081146).
    Also available on video.
    Not sure about DVD.

      I recommend Turning Wood, book and DVD, by Richard Rafflan.

        I would have to recommend Bill Grumbine's first DVD "Turned Bowls Made Easy" over any book.

              I have the one that Ray mentioned and I think it is very well written.

              I'll wait until I actually start turning, though, before I say that it should be in every turner's library. (Although I really think it should!)

                Yeah it looks like it. Where are you? I'm out in Putnam county near Coatesville.
