Just now got activated at the forum and wanted to stop in and say "HI!"

Only started turning pens about a week ago, and have a lot to learn yet...mostly finishing.


Been lurking for awhile.... Thought I share a few photo's....

Welcome Scott. There are several folks from the general area of Little Rock on this forum, or at least close enough that they make it to LR on occasion. Currently, I am in Japan but will be back in the States come December, just across the river in Tunica. I have 5 grand kids in Augusta, so I will be in your neck of the woods often after that!

AS to pen turning, join in the fun. Got questions, just ask! Some helps are here:

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.

Welcome Scott. I've a few good friends from your neck of the woods. I'm way over in "sunny" southern California.

This may be called a "white knuckle ride." Every time you pull out your wallet, ;-) . But it IS FUN! Looking forward to seeing your work.
