Pen-making Accessories (Lathe)
We should have the following:
- Mandrels
- Mandrel savers
- Bushings (#416 for Slimline pens)
- Pen Vise (metal, with wood shim, for holding blanks to drill)
- Pen Vise - wooden hand clamp with notches
- Pen Press for pen assembly (with various plastic and wooden spacers. similar to this
- Barrel Trimmers. These have interchangeable bits for different diameter barrels.
- Usually one for the 7mm is loaded.
- There is a box of barrel bits in the box with the other bits.
- Use these with a handheld drill. The wonderful new drill press over powers it. Generates too heat and breaks the bonds of the CA and wood, or over-trims.
- Pen Disassembly Punch Set (this will most likely destroy something.)
- 7mm bits for Slimline pens
- Consumables: CA Glue, Sand paper, Micromesh abrasives for acrylic, Shellawax, and hard wax will vary.
