Hi all I have been turning pens for about 4 months now and have been lurking in the back ground for a while now. I really enjoy looking at stuff you guys post and have found the library to be very helpful. hope to continue to learn from you guys

Welcome from Japan, Chris.

I know you have found the library but in case you missed it 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 in detail but a good overview for pen turning. Hope it helps.

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.
