Hi my name is Garry I'm based in Sutton Surrey.
I've been turning for about a year now and growing a collection of tools in the workshop.
My main hobby of electronics has sort of gone out the window.

I've had some good results and some total fails more of the latter, lol
As well as turning pens I have a small web shop selling hand turned parts for electronic cigarettes.

I've got so much to learn and hope a forum will give me what I'm looking for a little help etc.
Looking forward to having a good read through the posts.

Welcome Gary. I'd like to offer you some sage words, but I've no idea what's going on round here.

Garry,

Welcome to the affray. if you're not currently registered with a medical practioner specialising in neurological disorders I would reconsider your position. These specialists, with time on their hands, are quite unique and sought after, most of the available ones are taken up with this bunch of cup cakes. There's no hope for most of them but at least they appear happy.
