My posts seem to be coming out wrong. I am unable to view photo's I upload as they are showing as attachments and I am unable to edit them. The page that shows my post is grey in colour with no headings, it has a +4 Attachments notice on the bottom right but no way of clicking on it as it is...

Well folks this is it, This is my 1000th post on these forums. It has to be said I have enjoyed making every single one of them. I have picked up many a thing and learnt loads from you folk whilst making these. I remember my very first day here and how daunting it all was. The pics that are...

Hi All, We need more bank holiday's!! What a pleasure it's been to open the forum and click 'new posts' and get half a page of quality posts, Thank you to all who have braved the sunshine and got turning, it's been like old times, with some very interesting threads too. :thumbs::thumbs:

I notice on more than one occasion people replying to people using quotes and starting a new post for everyone they answer. Just for your information, there is a way around this by pressing the symbol that I have circled for all the posts that you want to quote and then press the "Reply to...

Not sure if anyone in here can help but it doesn't harm to ask & I know people will do other things apart from turning pens lol May have a job where I would like to inset a brass square (100mm) into the top of a post, I can pocket the top of the post out easy enough so the brass plate sits...

The blue fountain pen I made a few weeks ago sold a few hours after I posted it (we love it when THAT happens!), so I made a run of five. Doing several at a time cuts the time so dramatically - nearly in half. These went to posts this morning. Two are spoken for already. (The thought of...

I won't bore you by adding to my profile (which I presume is open to all) save only to say I very much look forward to reading posts from fellow pen turners and contributing occasionally when I can. Nicholas.

Noticed I am now listed as a " top turner" i dont own a lathe yet, then realised it has something to do with number of posts,,,, ah now i get it but remember Number of posts is the same as military rank,,,,, it has nothing to do with inteligence or ability :face: Many thanks for the rank, but...
