    Shopping

    Hi all, a little bit of restocking and I wanted the bigger camo blank, I couldn't find it anywhere, eventually tracked it down to Turners Warehouse in the US..... Thought I'd try the glow in the dark dragon scales too ordered on the 6th and came yesterday.... Not bad at all

    Disabled turners

    I was wondering if there is anyone (apart from myself) disable pen turners on this site. I have been disabled for about 6 years now, but it does not stop me from trying anything, at the moment I do volunteer work 3 days a week doing wood work. Most of the machines I can't use, but that still...

    I wonder

    I wonder if I should be writing this,I'm sure the powers that be will remove it if the answer is no. I have had a fantastic year making pens and the chance to talk to fellow pen turners who have gone through what I've been through and it's made think of how many wood turners / pen turners...

Sadly Turners Retreat don't have anything...

    Peter Childs has closed down

    I was looking for an adapter for a Patriot chuck and my first port of call is always Peter Childs having bought 3 Patriots from them, I couldn't understand why they had a link to Turners Retreat and then I clicked on their home page and was quite saddened. They have been a brilliant company. Peter
