Hello forum!
My lovely wife gifted me a JET 12/21 midi-lathe for Christmas. I'm exploring spindles, bowls, and of course pens. I began assembling pen supplies and starter kits and watching lots and lots of YouTube videos. I'm now a few pens in and am really enjoying it. I look forward to learning a lot from this community!

Cheers!

Hi Ted and Greetings from Nebraska.

Welcome to the IAP community. It looks like you are off to a great start. Very nice looking pens. I see you have made a couple of Cigar style (one of my very most favorite kit styles). If you haven't had a chance yet, you should check out the Cigar Pen Improving the Fit video by Ed from Exotic Blanks. Link: Cigar Pen Improvement.

I hope to see more of your work in the future and once again, welcome to the IAP community. - Dave (egnald)
