Welcome Billy. Keep all of those other Texans on here in line - like you do your students! :biggrin:
I am including a link to a PDF file that goes over many aspects of pen turning from finish - to pens - to tools - to methods etc. It is not a detail of each part, but a good overview for pen turning. Since you have been turning pens for a while, you probably know most of that, but I did want to include the link and the other link mentioned below that one.
Also included below is a link to a new post that gives some information that people wished they had known earlier in pen turning. Some good information by those that make pens.
Welcome to the Forum, Billy! Glad to have you join us from Texas. Now can you tell the rest of us just where is this place everyone keeps calling Texas?
