New from Ventura

[Barb]

Hi, I have been turning pens and other small projects for about 5 or 6 years now. This is a hobby of mine and I consider myself a beginner. I usually give my pens away for gifts or donate them to clubs that I am a part of.

I look forward learning more about pen turning.

Hi Barb. Welcome from another in so. 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.

The second link has postings by different pen turners and what they wish they had known earlier:

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.
