Hi from wet, cold miserable Cornwall. I've just started turning pens after many years of woodturning and other woodworking, and I'm looking for advice on turning stuff a little out of the ordinary ............. before I screw up too many blanks.

Hi Phil - welcome to the forum from a slightly less cold and miserable Devon, but still a disappointment after all the beautiful weather we've been having. Feel free to ask for whatever advice you need - there's usually someone around who'll be able to help.

Hi and welcome from the S of France, the weather is 28 degrees and the pool is the same where is this cold you are talking about? If you already know how to work wood then pens should be a doddle. :whistling:
