Hello all, Bill Jeffreys from Southern Maryland here. I'm looking forward to getting to know some of the amazing talent found here. I'm a novice pen turner but am enjoying my new hobby very much. I have a mechanical engineering background so details and precision are usually the things that drive me. I have always had a thing for nice pen and when I found out that there was a culture of actual pen makers out there I just couldn't resist.

Best Regards to Everyone,

Bill (Pen Willie) :cat:

Welcome Bill, from far west Kentucky, to the addiction, sometimes referred to as the vortex. Be sure to give the library a good bit of time. The link is at the top of the page. You will find an article called Library Index. This covers tutorials on about anything pen making you can think of. You will also notice that there are articles listed by year. Much good info there as well. When these fail to answer your questions, by all means post it here. I have never seen one go unanswered very long. You might also want to give this thread a good look. It has some very good info for the beginning pen turner; http://content.penturners.org/library/general_reference/Getting_started_in_pen_turning.pdf. Grab some wood, make some shavings and have fun all the while being safe.
