Hi....I'm retired and live in France. I'm completely new to penturning and turning between centres although was into bowl turning on a big lathe before retirement.
I also have a restricted area to work so want to concentrate on small detailed stuff and penturning seems ideal. I have a Tyme 'Little gem' and a small Axminster lathe. I have some initial questions hoping for a response which I'll put in another post. Thanks
