Hey my name is Ryan Flowers From Santa Maria California. I have looked at this sight many times before and gotten ideas. I have been making pens now as a business, Charity Pens for 1 year and known how to make them for about 3 years

Welcome to IAP from Northern CA.

Welcome Ryan. Glad to have you here! Post some picts of your work! Join in the fun of this great community!


I know you have been turning for a while and know most of the following but I do want to include the following links as a welcome. There may be a few things there that are helpful. 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 Ryan! You seem to be kind of "in the middle" of the state. Our So Cal Chapter seems to cover many from Ventura, L.A., San Bernardino, Orange, San Diego and Riverside Counties. You are most welcome if you find your way down here. Dale has our dates set for the monthly meetings this year in the So Cal in Local Chapters Forum.
