    Evening all I have been making two part slimline pens but having seen some of the things you guys are turning out I want to start making thicker pens if you know what I mean.

    Cigar Pen Kits

    Does anyone have experience with cigar pen kits. I have bought a number of them over the years, from a couple of different UK suppliers and by and large I have had the same problem with them. I find that the transmission mechanism is unlike a ballpoint mechanism that turns to a certain point...

    Help is required

    As some of you know I have been ill for the last 10 years or so, Sadly I will never be 100% again. Oh dear, how sad, lets move on. As you know I took up pen making as a form of therapy, something to motivate me enough to get out of bed and do something a few times a week. Being ex Army I am of...

    That old chestnut

    Where have they gone?

    When I started pen turning and looked for slimline kits there were many companies offering kits in many colours. Now I’ve run out of kits and want to fulfill commissions but I now can’t find suppliers who offer other than blue or green kits. I need mainly red ones so if anyone knows of a...

    Pen Kits

    What is your absolute favourite pen kit of all time? If all kits were ended tomorrow except one what would that kit be? it has to be a currently available kit and not one that ended production when William Shakespeare died. The reason I am asking is to see if price governs our way of thinking...
