Hi all

Just popping in to say hello and hopefully get a bit more involved. I stopped making pens many years ago as i was looking after my Mother and which was almost a full time job. I then had my own ongoing health issues so it's not been a good time. But hey I here now and have dusted off the lathe and started again so looking forward to posting some pictures soon and hopefully some of you may remember me from the old forum.:thumbs:

Cheers
Rich

Hi

Thanks for the welcome it really means a lot. I live in St Erme which is about 3 miles from Truro. It always amazes me the number of people who have Cornish ancestors, they say that if you shout down a mine anywhere in the world you will get a Cornish-man answer (usually saying I'll do it Dreckly), I believe that I have some relations in America and Canada. Hoping to post up a couple or three pictures of my recent efforts.

Cheers
Rich
