Could use a mentor near Minneapolis, MN

I am just down the road from you in Belle Plaine. I am no expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I have been learning from a friend in Jordan. I could probably introduce you to him if you are interested. He might not have the time to teach you as quickly as a school might but you wouldnt have to spend any money for tuition and he would be only a few minutes away. He has been teaching me how to use my lath and its been a good time I have learned alot already. We sometimes turn to drinking coffee and chewing the fat too much but that's okay cause it's all in fun anyway. He's going to teach me how to use a mill too even though I don't have one yet.
Is it Terry by chance? I actually met him not too long ago.
 
Yes it is! He used to be a member here. Because of some things that I will not go into, he is not here anymore. He can be found online at Machinists Gazette but says he will not come back here.
