Hi everyone,
I am Richard, turning 50 this year... Kids are almost grown (and everyone seems to think I need to broaden my horizons beyond the house, so....). I have been in love with the mechanisms of pens, since I first disassembled Cross, Shaeffer and Parker pens back in grade school). I became enamored of turned pens a few years ago (thanks to my daughter), and did a pen turning workshop at WoodCrafters in January.
Other things about me - we live in Colerain Township, in what used to be entirely country and woods (damn developers!). I am an avid reader, gadget freak, nerd (long before it was fashionable, lol), music buff, live with my wife, kids, 3 dogs and whatever cats that come to feed outside (Love the dogs, but the cats - not so much).
I have been in Printing PrePress for over 30 years, and am fluent in almost any Adobe program (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc).
I am just looking for a hobby, and hope to make some knowledgeable friends along the way!
Thanks,
Richard
