Hi from the booming metropolis of Byrdstown Tennessee:biggrin: Home of the world famous Dale Hollow Lake

This place is busting with ideas and knowledge for a rookie like me and it is much appreciated! I am new to turning because my father in law recently downsized and gave me his lathe to put in my shop.

I am working on some "gimmick pens" to give him, but I am also looking forward to trying some of the more advanced stuff in the near future.

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to share the knowledge! Here are a my first pens. I have done 8 so far. Be nice, I just started Sunday this week:redface:


Brian

HeeHeHe I suppose "novelty " would have been a better choice. :biggrin:

I'm just practicing so I can figure out how to make some nice segmented sets for gifts.

Welcome from Mississippi, Brian. Nice pens. If you will post them in the show off your pen (SOYP) forum. We have a contest for new comers that you could win a box of blanks.

WOW Thanks everyone! And I see that I am not alone in the Volunteer State! I'm just in from a catastrophic failure followed by a surprisingly close second attempt :biggrin:
