No snow on the ground yet, temps in the mid 40's.

Just got accepted to IAP. Wow is all I can say about some of the turnings I've seen here. I turned about 10 pens from Rockler's slimline (cheap) section. Just trying to get familiar with pen turning. Will post some photos when I get done.

Welcome Iceman. Glad to have you here. Better start picking up all those pennies you've been walking over.

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.

Hey, another Minnesotan! Where in MN are you located?

You'll find a lot of information here, so take your time and go through the library a bit, and feel free to ask questions (even PM me if you want).

Welcome!
