Hello from California

[Brian Frank]

Hello Everyone, I started turning pens December 16th, 2014. Christmas gifts for family and a few friends. That turned out to be 23 pens before Christmas. I think I'm hooked as I have turned about 40 more since Christmas. Found IAP by chance. Glad to be a member and look forward to reading and sharing info about everyones turnings in the future. Here are a few pens I have turned. Sorry for the picture quality. Something I have to work on.

Brian, Welcome from Virginia!

Wow! I guess nobody told you to start out as a beginner and work your way up to bigger and better / more challenging blanks!
Super job on the segmenting! Your fit and finish are looking very good too!

Thanks Charlie, Some of my 40plus years of woodworking is rubbing off on building blanks and turning pens.

Your experience shows!
Check out the library here for tons of great info.
Also we have several IAP vendors who are great folks to do business with!
