| Woodworking has been a hobby of mine for many years. Now that I am
retired, I have time to really enjoy it. My current project is turning wooden pen
and pencil sets. Although a bandsaw and drillpress are useful, the only essential
tool is a lathe. I get most of my supplies from the Woodcraft Supply Corporation. They have a number of retail stores around the country offering hands-on workshops and a catalog. Their website has a very informative area on pen turning. |

My next project will be learning to use my scroll saw. I plan to make small crosses for necklaces from wood salvaged from the trees removed from our church grounds. As my skill increases, I want to create jig-saw puzzles. |
