Just wanted send out a quick hello from the Baton Rouge area and introduce myself. I am actually new to pen turning but have been doing woodworking from about age 10. A quick explanation of what got me here is that I don't have a shop for all of my tools (toys) and not being able to do any woodworking has finally taken it's toll on me. I found a nice 14" vs Jet lathe for a good price and figured that I can make my little outdoor storage unit into a small turning shop before I went crazy. I am currently awaiting some supplies and tools to begin my first actual pen and have been reading all of the great information that this community puts out. Anyway.... I'll shut up an let you all get on with your day. By the way.... Am I correct in saying that the nearest local chapter would be ARKLATEX or Houston area?
