Hello all from NC

[Dschron]

Hello everyone. My name is David. I am retired military (~30 years) residing in Wake Forest, NC. I am brand new to pen turning, and wood turning in general for that matter. I recently got my first lathe (Jet 1221VS) and am loving every minute of it so far. I look forward to learning from you all and interacting!

Welcome aboard. There are quite a few pentuners in the northern NC area and one of the best tool makers around in Pilot Mountain (Rick Herrell - See the IAP Marketplace). And, many of our members are former and/or retired military.
