Hello

[AnchorCraft]

Hello. My name is Mike. We are located in Mississippi and I am retired from the Navy. I have been turning pens for about 3 years. Not seriously, mainly gifts and keeping the mind occupied. I recently decided to kick this up a notch, get serious, and see if i can improve my skills enough to start paying for sandpaper. My search to locate a community of like minds and resources landed me here. Thank you to those that started this site and compiled all of this data.
This is a Majestic Roller ball with curly maple blank I made.
Thank you.
