Excellent. Many thanks for the response and great advice.
I’m very much a novice having turned just two pens to date from some gifted mahogany - I think it may have once been a chair leg or similar.
Im very much looking forward to more pen turning with different materials and as I alluded in my original post, a fantastic hobby for mental wellbeing.
…….. But what a time stealer. I tell my patient other half I’m popping in the garage for an hour and emerge 5 hours later happy as Larry.

[QUOTE="CGS01, post: 373323, member: 5811"] Excellent. Many thanks for the response and great advice. I’m very much a novice having turned just two pens to date from some gifted mahogany - I think it may have once been a chair leg or similar. Im very much looking forward to more pen turning with different materials and as I alluded in my original post, a fantastic hobby for mental wellbeing. …….. But what a time stealer. I tell my patient other half I’m popping in the garage for an hour and emerge 5 hours later happy as Larry. 😁😁 [/QUOTE]
