Hi guys thank you for accepting me,
I am new to pen turning, and live in north Notts, I have made a few pens from slimline to Cigar, still very new and learning all the time.
I don't have the right setup as yet but all being well maybe in the future, I have a metal lathe that I turn wood / acrylic pens on and have a cheap set of lathe tools.
I do sometime make my own pen pushing, not sold any pen as of yet, I just like to give them away to friends and family.
will upload some pen pic when I can.
looking to learn new things, and any help would be welcome.

Always exciting to begin a new adventure. I found the hardest part was not to buy lots of different kits. Welcome to the forum David.

Yes, hello and welcome, we also answer questions, lots of them, so ask away.... There is no such thing as a silly question, but you can't always say the same about the answers

Welcome to the pen forum, as it's been said, any questions ask away, one might never get the correct answer!
