This will be the thread to announce the winners of our monthly Introduction Prize Drawing for new members.

To be eligible for this monthly drawing, all a new member has to do is post an Introduction sometime after joining IAP. There is no time limit for making an Introduction post, but I encourage you to make it as soon as possible after joining to make sure that I don't overlook your post when I compile the "lottery list" at the end of each month.

Welcome aboard!

total new members 2016

For the year of 2016 there have been 405 new members who have signed on and entered this contest. That is 405 new members. That is quite a few to say the least. I do hope those that did take the time to sign in, come to play in our sandbox. I wish all good luck in your quest to have some fun making a few pens. I hope you do stick around and join us as we take this site to new heights. With all this new and fresh talent I expect to see some great stuff being shown and discussed here. Always remember we are here to share knowledge, photos, and even our thoughts and good and bad events in our lives.

Hope to see you all on the site. Have fun and happy turning:)
