Hello,

I just got started turning pens on my small metal lathe and I'm having a lot of fun (and stockpiling a lot of wood :biggrin:). This site has been great and I've already learned a lot, especially about finishing which is fantastic given that I'll be turning a lot of other small things that aren't pens too.

Thanks for all the great information and I look forward to learning more.

Welcome from far west Kentucky, Dustin to the addiction, sometimes referred to as the vortex. You mention that you have read some of the site, be sure to give the library a good bit of time. The link is at the top of the page. You will find an article called Library Index. This covers tutorials on about anything pen making you can think of. You will also notice that there are articles listed by year. Much good info there as well. When these fail to answer your questions, by all means post it here. I have never seen one go unanswered very long. Grab some wood, make some shavings and have fun all the while being safe.
