Hi all, I am a new member from Utah. I thought I might post a picture of a couple of pens I turned today. I am relatively new to pen turning and am finding my way along in the craft.

A physician friend of mine said he wanted a "Doctor pen," so as you can see I made one for him.

Let me know what you think, ...maybe. ;-)

Welcome Lauren!

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.
