The Penturners Local 409 union was a goof joke that started with friends helping out at wood turning and pen turning shows about four years ago. Friends demanding their union breaks and such and some how the next show we had a logo and shirts for the helpers. After actual Carpenter Union members were at one of the shows and asked questions about the 409, it got even funnier. They wanted shirts and ID cards too!
Join the Penturners Local 409 Union: A Union Like No Other!
Attention all woodturners, pen makers, and lovers of all things lathe!
Do you have a passion for turning wood into beautiful, functional works of art? Have you spent countless hours at shows setting up, tearing down, and making sure everyone's pens are on display? Do you believe that every pen blank deserves its moment of glory? Then it's time to officially join the Penturners Union, Local 409—the world's most prestigious (and completely made-up) union for those who make the magic happen behind the scenes at every pen turning event!
As a member of Local 409, you'll be part of an elite group of hardworking, dedicated, and sometimes over-caffeinated individuals who understand that woodturning is more than a hobby—it's a lifestyle.
Why Join the Penturners Union, Local 409?
Simply raise your lathe tool in the air, shout "I'm ready to make pens and set up events!" (or just send us a message)—and you're in! We don't discriminate on skill level, and no background checks are required—just a love for wood, turning, and the occasional joke about the "hard labor" of show setups.
So come on down, grab your official T-shirt, your shiny membership ID card, and start enjoying all the perks of being a member of the Penturners Union, Local 409—where we turn wood, we turn pens, and we always have fun doing it!
Don't wait—join today! (Or, you know, maybe next time you're stuck lifting a few tables at a show...).
