Hi all, I'm a pen turner from Michigan.
I've been turning steady for about 2 years now, but decided to get a bit more serious about it this past year.

I've been viewing the site for awhile now and figured it was time to join, rather than just lurk!

Hey Rich. Welcome from sunny southern California.

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.
http://www.penturners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=42446

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.
