    I've Been Published!

    A few months ago, one of the editors from The Woodworkers News And Reviews contacted me to ask if I was interested in writing a small piece about getting started in pen turning. After some emailing between Ontario to BC we finally hashed something out. The final run was published just this week. In looking back, I see one or two minor glitches but nothing that would stop someone from turning a pen. He is the link if you want to have a look.

        And another Congratulations. Well organized too. I know how hard it is to include all the basics and at the same time not over-do it (add too much.) A great piece.

        I agree with what Gerti wrote!

          congrats. Not enough time to read through it now but I put the link on my desk top for later. Would love to try turning pens.

                  That is a great article (especially for anyone who wants to try pen turning.
