[Sammy-2016]

Hello all,
My name is Sammy.
I am a mechanical engineer for over 30 years.
I am into glass etching and scroll sawing.
I have been admiring Pen Turning and the beauty of the finished turned pens.
I just bought myself an old used Central Machinery lathe.
I was referred to this forum by a woodworker (I am glad).
I can't wait to start turning pens.
Looking forward to posting and getting involved.
Thank you for having me.

Welcome from Thirsk UK.

Now glass etching there's a new skill to use on here! For display stands that could be sensational!

I think you'll find the intricacies of the art as fascinating as the result.
