Hello from North Central Washington

[baumer64]

Hello all! My name is Brett and I live in North Central Washington. I found this site today while looking up how tos and items to buy. I got my first lathe this year and finally got it set up about a month ago. (Nova Comet II) I'm 53 and this is the first I've turned since High School. I've been practicing turning small bowls and other spindle type projects. Pen turning looks interesting to me, and seeing how I haven't even turned my first one yet, I look forward to learning from those of you here.

Welcome Brett. Join in on the fun and give it a try. Warning: Lots of little mistakes ahead but plenty of rewards, and then comes the requests for more from others!

You have Bowl turning experience already and that is a great help. Your first pen should be easy. Post some picts of your work!
