Watch this guy make a cool pot from an old fence post

Watching woodturning is so soothing. I used to try to watch Woodturning Workshop with Tim Yoder on TV on weekend afternoons, but it always put me to sleep if I was at all tired. Loads of episodes that aren’t hard to find, and very instructional. I’m a hobby woodworker, and not a wood turner, but I still find it fascinating.

A word of warning, though: a lathe can be one of the most dangerous tools in a shop and proper training and caution are necessary.
