Hello from Bama!

[jdthornton]

Hi everyone! My name is David and I'm relatively new to pen turning. Started a little less than a year ago when I was trying to find ideas for Christmas gifts. I've enjoyed my learning (thanks to this site) and turning so far. I look forward to learning more and also being able to contribute later as well.

I hope everyone has a great evening. I'm hoping to go turn a pen!

David

Hi David. Welcome from sunny southern California!

I'm putting a few links in here for reference –
This link has postings by different pen turners on what they wish they had known earlier:

This link tells of some "out of the box" tools/aids for pen turners http://www.penturners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=66178

This one is a PDF on the acronyms used here. I am sure you know many but this will help with those you don't. http://content.penturners.org/articl...9/Acronyms.pdf
