Welcome Oliver! I assure you that your English is much, much better than my French!

Welcome Oliver. Glad you are here. Don't worry about perfect communication. Even those of us who speak it natively have trouble communicating at times! :biggrin: I can't speak French, but I can speak a little Japanese. (I used to speak some French in So. Louisiana, but that was many years ago.)

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.

Welcome, Oliver, from sunny southern California.

I have a dear friend from France. But his mother was from Scotland - so his English was apparently as good as yours.:biggrin:
