My name is Scott. I have been woodworking for about 8 years and pen turning for about 2, although pen turning has taken a front seat in my shop. I would love to retire and do this all day...we can all dream
Welcome from the other end of the state. Take a look in the Local Chapters section for the New England Chapter, and hopefully you can make it out for a meeting...
Hello Scott and welcome! I am in the exact same spot. I started about two years ago branching out from carving. Now pen making consumes whatever free time that my two year old doesn't. I'm also looking to upgrade to a larger lathe and a mini metal lathe. I'm pretty lucky to have a wife that is ok with it all. I think she just likes because she usually gets the first good run of whatever I make.
