Hello:
My name is Doug, and I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico with my wife and daughter. I have a son who is attending college in Colorado. I work full time and turn for fun.
I am new to turning, but having a great time. I went to a friends to see his lathe set up, intending to make grips and reel seats for fly rods. He handed me a pen blank and a turning tool and I have as yet to make a grip or reel seat. I am currently turning out slim lines for the Freedom Pens Project.
Would like to thank you all for the information that is provided here for us newbies.
My only problem is that my wife and some of her friends have seen the freedom pens and now they want me to make pens for my daughters ballet company to sell at their Christmas performance of the nutcracker. Any ideas on Christmas or Nutcracker themed pens?
Thanks
Doug
