Ms. Levy,
As promised I am sending you pictures of the pen turning
workshop at the Virginia Technology Education Association's
Annual Summer Conference. The workshop was a huge success
thanks in part to your generous donation. If you would like
to present at next year's conference please visit the VTEA
website at vtea.org. Again, thanks for your generous donation.
Sincerely,
Jim Logan Educational Specialist

Hi Pam,
At the TEA Summer In-Service Conference I presented a program
titled Expanding Projects for Spinning Lathes Using Duplicators.
Some of the participants were new teachers and did not know
anything about turning pens and other participants were interested
in how the duplicator worked and how to make their own patterns.
I would like to mention that I also demonstrated how to turn
pens on a lathe to members of the Paris Boys' Club. The participants
were very enthusiastic.

Your PSI Lathe Duplicator has let my 7th and 8th graders
turn out a higher quality product than beginners should be able
to do. The kids love your tools and it makes my job much easier.

The lathe project kits are so user friendly that you
can easily teach, monitor, and help many students, even though
they are all working on different projects.

Our students made over $700 selling
PSI pens and pocket watches! Outstanding service!

Pen fabrication
is exciting for students of all ages. This product motivates
both middle and high school students in real world applications.
Students ask to stay after school for continued production!

Dont
shortchange the wide use of manual machining and the need for
skilled help to run those machines. The program I teach is 100
percent manual, and I enjoy 100 percent job placement for my students.

Dear Pam,
Thank you for the support that you and your company has
given me for my woodturning presentations. Without that support
I would not be able to be as successful as they have. This year
we presented to 65 teachers of varying degrees of experience.
We had 7 JET lathes (2 with duplicators) and 1 Carbatec lathe
set up. Two groups of 3 lathes were set up to make pens and
keychains with the remaining two being set up for the Yo-Yos.
One duplicator was used for pens and the other for keychains.
There seemed to be a lot of interest in the duplicators. I endorsed
them as being a good tool to have if you dont have the
time to teach the students how to use the other tools. Rachel
Baxter (my co-conspirator - presenter) could not make it so
I presented 2 two hour sessions with some help from Steve Woods
from Denton, TX. We had a great time and everyone was busy and
happy. Again, thank you for your help.
