I love wood or acrylic pens that have been turned.  One day I will learn.  I also love the wood stand you made.  That is just awesome.  Thanks for sharing Jimbo.

Jimbo

Thanks for the info. I have seen the Jet brand at Rockler. Not ready to purchase yet. Should spend some time on a turning forum probably.
