Hi

I am recently retired. I spent 20+ years in the RAF working computers in Nimrods and the next 20+ years consulting in specialist software.

But I have now rediscovered the joys of making stuff. With my new lathe and the help of youtube I have made a few bowls. Then I saw someone making Pens and thought Christmas presents, where can I get help?

Then I found the International association of Penturners who pointed me to this group, result.

So expect a few numpty questions

Alan

Hi, Alan,

Welcome to our forum where insanity runs amok and is considered normal. You will rue the day you entered, my friend! But, you will also become an expert in all things turning.

Regards,

Bob.

Hi and welcome

Alan

The only time you become a numpty is when you don't ask about something you are either not sure about or don't know so ask away someone will probably know.
