Hi my name is Adrian and I live in Stoke on Trent.
I only started turning in March and have turned a few pens for family and friends. (Must learn to stop giving them away though). Can't believe how addictive this turning lark is.
Looking at the banter that goes on here i hope i can fit in and learn a few things along the way.

Welcome aboard, Adrian! This where you will pick up knowledge and learn not to cock things up and have to give the results away - but we all make mistakes. It's part of the learning process, matey, LOL!
