New here from Effingham, Illinois
Hi I just joined and am new to wood turning. I have also joined a turning club (Flatland Woodturners, Champaign. IL - www.flwt.webs.com) and the club is helping me to get started. I look forward to gaining knowledge from this site.

Hi John. Welcome from southern California.
Below are links to two threads/articles that have lots of information on pen turning. The first one is a very basic overview of the many aspects of getting into turning pens. http://www.penturners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=42446 The second link has postings by different pen turners and what they wish they had known earlier: http://www.penturners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=46654 Here is another link - a PDF on the acronyms used here. I am sure you know many but this will help with those you don't. http://content.penturners.org/articl...9/Acronyms.pdf
