Hello, my name is Bryn I am from the southwest UK but I have been living in Finland with my Finnish partner for about 3 years now. I have been watching loads of videos on YouTube and got addicted to pen turning videos and then decided I have to try this, I found a local school that rent out time in the shop so I turned my first pens... and I must admit they are quite good. And now I am saving for my own lathe and trying to find somewhere I can make them, as I live in a flat and I'm sure people won't like the sound thought the walls and ceilings.

Anyway it's nice to be part of this and I hope I can learn from you experienced pen turners.:)

Bryn; Welcome; A small desk-top lathe doesn't make much noise. You can cut blanks with a miter box and hand saw. A pen mill in a drill doesn't make much noise either. A few pen gifts to the neighbors will allow you to turn to your hearts content, if your flat can accommodate the tools.
