Friends,
Just a few short months ago I joined this group to learn about making pens. I had no clue how to do anything and was quite literally, completely clueless. With tremendous ambition but zero knowledge of wood working or using tools, I started reading and following pen makers and members of IAP. I was warmly received and accepted by the amazing people here. Despite my annoying questions and complete lack of skill or knowledge, I was allowed to join and participate.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. The folks here took me in, sent me supplies and gifts to help get started and mentored me along the way. You showered me with friendship and help. I can not begin to describe the appreciation that I have for all that you folks have done.
It is my heart felt wish that everyone have the very merriest of Christmas's and New Year. Stay safe and enjoy time with friends and family at this most joyous of times. You are true friends and family now.
