Hi all, my name is James i am a retired teacher and have been turning for many years. I have had a thing about PENS and pen turning that I have not been able to overcome ( i still take the pills ). Always looking to broaden my horizons with new projects etc. I have taught woodturning at all levels and I was the first resident of Northern Ireland to be accepted onto the RPT. Always willing to share any knowledge of all aspects of turning I have with those who are interested in woodturning. I hope to improve my typing skills as well as my turnings.

regards
Jameshj

Welcome James,

With a CV like that I'm looking forward to learning from you, sure there is something we can help you with on the way as well.

Looking forward to seeing your work.

Welcome from the Garden of England. Watch out for the northeners, they drink solvents neat, whilst we prefer a slice of apple in the mix.

Hi James and welcome. I'm not sure you're in the right place as they're all nutters on this forum, I'm the only sane one and it appears you actually know what your doing whereas most of the time we haven't a scooby.
As the others have requested, it'll be nice to see some of your work and hopefully pick up a few tips.
