I'm new to the forum and only just discovered it (by accident), I'm relatively new to turning but have been turning pens for a little while now. I started off doing pens as a stress buster but now feel like there's a bit of an obsession is coming on.

Hi Hobo

Welcome to the forums . I'm fairly new here too as well as to turning. You will be made very welcome here and gain loads of first class information . Unfortunately...or fortunately a large part of the gang are having a first time get together to-day and are at present terrorising parts of Nottinghamshire so it may be quite for most of the day on here.

Regards

Ed.

Hi Hobo,

A big welcome to you. I am fairly new here as well and as 'Ed' has said today maybe quiet because of the get-together. This forum is the biz, the knowledge of the guys is top notch. Someone will be able to answer any of your questions.
So enjoy....:banana::banana::banana:

Welcome Hobo. There's nothing obsessive about pen turning it's just one of your normal run of the mill 'dark' arts.

Welcome to the asylum !

As a relative newcomer to turning I can vouch for the folks on here to be helpful, knowledgable and equally as crazy as you will become.

Enjoy!

Wotchya Hobo, Pour yourself a large one and wade through the threads of useful info. Laugh at comments, ignore the crap then have a lay down and cry because it's true, you have gone mad.

Constipated people don’t give a crap
