Hi guys thank you for accepting me,
I am new to pen turning, and live in north Notts, I have made a few pens from slimline to Cigar, still very new and learning all the time.
I don't have the right setup as yet but all being well maybe in the future, I have a metal lathe that I turn wood / acrylic pens on and have a cheap set of lathe tools.
I do sometime make my own pen pushing, not sold any pen as of yet, I just like to give them away to friends and family.
will upload some pen pic when I can.
looking to learn new things, and any help would be welcome.
