Welcome to the dark side!

Wow … that came out looking great Steve!

Thanks! I inherited my father’s lathe but had never used one before, so my neighbor helped me get started. I think I’m gonna like the dark side!

Looking good Steve. Looks like the neighbor is a good teacher.
I think maybe you own him a pen ;-)

Steve, that looks great! Love the colors in it. Be Warned Pen Turning IS Addictive! But FUN!

-- Thomas - there are no problems, there are only solutions.

Great job on your first pen, careful they are addicitve. Christmas coming soon, they make great gifts. I like to make pens from scraps from my bigger projects.

-- Bill from Lithia Springs, GA I love the smell of sawdust in the morning.

Great first pen! I just got my first lathe about a month ago as well… hang on, it’s going to be a fun ride! :D
