Hi all
Six months ago my Brother passed away & left me his woodworking tools including bandsaw, pillar drill & a lathe.
I had not used a lathe before but gave it a go and turned a few small things like light pulls and such then I discovered pen turning & am now hopelessly addicted to it especially segmenting. Hope to upload some pics soon.
Regards Pat

Welcome Pat.
You’ve come to the right place for advice.
Just ask away, or have a look at previous posts

Pat following the pens you have posted there are many lessons passed on to us on this forum by you in this short time without hesitation I say you are a natural turner. I have friends who would be stunned by your proffessional work so far I know I am. Welcome from over here mate.

Peter.

Hi Pat - welcome aboard. I'm sorry that it was such sad circumstances that brought you to turning. I hope you feel right at home here, and needless to say, we're all looking forward to some piccies from you.
