Been reading alot here over the last several months. I have learned so much about this highly addictive hobby. What a wealth of information available here.
A big thanks to all the experts here that give away the knowledge they have for free.

Hey Dave, welcome to pen crack. You are so right about the adictivness of this hobby/craft. If you're up for a March road trip, we will have an interesting chapter meeting in March (check out "chapters/Indianapolis) at one of the key suppliers of the goodies we use and this is a "formal invitation". If you have questions ask and we will try to fill you in.

Welcome Dave! Glad to have you here! Join in the fun.

Below are links to some threads/articles that have lots of information on pen turning. The first one is a very basic overview of the many aspects of getting into turning pens.

The second link has postings by different pen turners and what they wish they had known earlier:

Here is another link - a PDF on the acronyms used here. I am sure you know many but this will help with those you don't.
