Hello, everyone. My name is Nick and I live in Arizona. I have been addicted to turning for 4 years now. My wife keeps telling I need to find help for it but I tell her there is no help to be found. I turn pens and bowls mostly. I have only done basic pens but from looking around on the site here I think I will be able to expand beyond that soon. I own a Nova DVR 1624 (my brithday present to myself last year). I have two kids that I hope to pass my addiction on to one day if my wife will let me. I look forward to getting to know many of you and learning from you all as well.:)

Welcome Nick. Glad to hear about your addiction and be assured that you are among fellow addicts. So far, no one has come up with a 12 Step Program that solves the addiction to pen making.
 
Welcome Nick, 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.
