New to posting on this forum, i've been a ghost here for awhile now, reading and looking at all the pics and learning what i can. Really like this forum. I turn mainly pens, been at it for about 4 or 5 months, made about 40 or so, sold just about all of them, this is VERY addicting. And for you pen makers, WOW!, hope i can get as good as you all. Anyway, hello
Harry

Welcome Harry, from far west Kentucky, to the addiction, sometimes referred to as the vortex. You mention that you have read some of the site, be sure to give the library a good bit of time. The link is at the top of the page. You will find an article called Library Index. This covers tutorials on about anything pen making you can think of. You will also notice that there are articles listed by year. Much good info there as well. When these fail to answer your questions, by all means post it here. I have never seen one go unanswered very long. You might also want to give this thread a good look. It has some very good info for the beginning pen turner; http://content.penturners.org/library/general_reference/Getting_started_in_pen_turning.pdf. Grab some wood, make some shavings and have fun all the while being safe.
Have a look at the series of videos ed4copies has just posted showing how to complete a pen from drill to finish.
