Hello from Niagara Falls

[Worldway]

Hi all,

I wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I am new to pen turning. Actually my wife and I decided to give it a try. We bought a lathe, a few necessary accessories and a few kits. So far we have done OK. Nothing to brag about but not bad for starting out. We are learning and when searching the internet I found the IAP and this forum. I have already used it to get some very useful information. I do have a couple of questions but will search for answers first before I ask them.

Look forward to this new hobby

Greetings from Nebraska and welcome to the IAP community. Niagara Falls is a lot of fun. I used to travel there about 4 or 5 times a year until I retired. I was the Director of Engineering for Vishay Intertechnologies and I had an engineering team that I visited at the Vishay location in Niagara Falls. - Dave
