Hi Everyone.........

[daveeisler]

Dave here, I have been turning wood, and pens for ever, I got board with the pens I was making and came accross some new stuff that got me turning again, I do a ton of woodworking, I have been studying magic/mentalism for over 30 years and I also like to fly, I do have a job too. I am a sales rep for a few furniture factorys in the Washington ,DC area, I have only been here a few years, most of my life I lived in NJ and worked in NYC. So that's me, what about you.

Welcome Dave,

You have come to the right place.  I don't turn pens, but most of the guys on here are pro's at it.  I have, however, made my living for the past 9 years crafting wooden puzzleboxes, and there are a few guys that also make magic items out of wood here.  There is a lot of diversity on this website, but our one thing is common is that we are all well seasoned in woodworking.  We look forward to gleaning a few techniques from you, and hopefullly seeing some picture of your work when you have time.

Hi Dave,

Like Roby mentioned we all have a common interest in woodworking, 'the tie that binds', so to speak   Like to see some of your work...

wellcome Dave! hmm dust of some woods smells good indeed, but I am cutting now padouk...  have you ever sniffed at it?

[Roby]

padouk smells good compared to cypress.  That wood smells like rotting garbage.
