Hi!
I'm Ashley and I'm new here and relatively new (6 months or so) to pen turning. My husband and I both turn after he got me my first lathe as a gift. However, with him being active duty military and me with my disabilities, we don't have the chance to turn daily.
I was wondering if there are any "must know" tips that you wish someone would have told you when you began turning? Also, where is the best place to buy relatively inexpensive blanks that are of good quality? We only have a Woodcraft local to us and they are somewhat steep on their prices.
Thanks and have a great one!
