Hi everybody, I've had the addiction (turning ) for a couple of years now and still can't get enough.

Welcome from Ohio!

Welcome Pat, glad to have you here. This is an addiction for sure. Winter, for me, causes the addiction to ache though! How do YOU handle it? It doesn't get below -6 or -7 C here but that is bad enough!

For some reading:
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.
