Welcome aboard Andy. If you can't get answers to your Pen Making questions here, I sincerely doubt you can get them anywhere.

Wow, it suddenly dawned on me how willing the people are to help on this forum when someone (not sure who) was willing to completely take apart their pen press to take a photo of a specific piece for someone wanting to build one.

I think your in the right place.

Welcome, Andy. Glad to have you here.

Below are links to two 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.
