I got my first lathe today, its a Midi size and I have never used a lathe before. What is a good first project to build skills? I have a band saw and drill press so in terms of tools I am not very limited? The lathe came with a set of 3 chisels from PSI that are, 3/8-inch gouge 1/8-inch parting, and a 1/2-inch oval skew. What would be a short list of chisels to add versatility to that set?
Ill post pictures of the set up tomorrow, since it was almost too good a deal to be true.
