kits

Hi Just wondering whether someone has got some Roman Harvest kits they don't want. Thanks Peter

I went there yesterday and it was a good day out with plenty of wood related stuff to look at. I was particularly impressed with many of the Pen makers. The last two I looked at chose to make pens using only native hardwoods and the looked very good. Of particular interest were the style and...

Two slimline finished in melamine. One is made from oak & the other from tulip wood. Kits & blanks donated by Woody.

Hi all :) I recently got a new batch of Sierra pen kits. I've found that the two of the finishes come from one factory, and the third from another. I actually suspect one is in China and one Taiwan, but that's a guess. I've made this assumption as the metal finish on the mechanisms are slightly...

These Leveche pen kits from Beaufort I really like

I don't really make a lot of pens & the ones I have made have all been the standard sort of ballpoint or rollerball like slimlines & classics. My Daughter in law asked me if I could make a pen set as a wedding gift which I am happy to do but I am not really sure what options there are for kits...

It's been some time since I made a pen. Customer brought me 2 Kirinite Sun glow blanks and said you pick a couple kits. Bolt action and a kit that I don't know it's name and it's so old I don't think it's made now. Had 5 kits so I just turned them all. My wife already claimed one. The...

Hi all not been on the forum for a few years dug the lathe out and have turned a few zeta kits and a couple of lucidas i had laying around have some omega and alpha kits that i need to get some bushings for (sadly out of stock) just wondering what other high end kits have come to the market in...

After playing with the other two pens I made today and the shed tidy up I found a pair of pen kits that I had forgotten all about. Not going to mention them yet BUT they will definitely go with the blanks I have started.... They are little clay Nail Art pieces that I have glued onto a...

Brian Wilson engraved a dragon on some brass blanks for me all I had to do was make them fit the dragon kits sold as soon as I posted it

Hi All I'm after a bit of help, I'm trying to locate pen kits that use resin/ebonite parts rather than chrome/gold etc. I have found one set by pen-kits.co.uk called Winston but that the only one I can find does anyone know of any others. Thanks Paul

I've just bought a few pen kits that I haven't tried turning before and I'm a little unsure about the required bushes. Nothing expensive as I still class myself as a beginner. The kits are from Pencrafts and they are Polaris, Vertex and Executive. I've been through the bushes section of the...

Last section of Beech Burl done and cut up. These are for an order, x4 of the New Beaufort Ink Zephers one in each colour pen Pen kits now ordered and hopefully turn them next weekend :banana:

Had a busy day Sunday. My son dropped off a "few" Bottle stopper kits he wanted making up and I made a few Mini Screwdriver kits for orders he had. Mixture of Bottle Stoppers. The Dark & Light are a Dark Wood (sorry can not remember the name) & Glow in the dark acrylic The rest are what I call...

Made these today from one of my own Hybrid Blanks. Didn’t turn out as I expected as the “Pink” should of been a deep red :rolling: Very pleased with them though and the kits are awesome, love this kit and the colour :thumbs:

Hi everyone, James from Durham here. Just started turning this year and quite interested in pens. Made 3 so far, (all slims) one under instruction, and two on my own. The one under instruction turned out better than the other two, but hopefully with some practice they'll be...

I have a couple of Mother of Pearl 3/8ths tubed blanks. Anyone have any idea what pen kits would show them off to their best? Dave

Hi All, Big shout out to our leader Phil. :-)) After watching my last video of the pen kit failure Phil got in touch and said he would send me a Tempest. He ended up sending two. It was a very generous offer and big thanks to him for his kindness. I had a couple of catches as the Olive wood...

I am picking up my new (to me) lathe on wed16th so yesterday I thought I had better order some kits so I can get started straight away, so I went online to penkitz and bitz duly ordered 10 kits with bushes and 7mm drill bit this was yesterday Afternoon, so you can understand my amazement when...

Hi All, I’ve been commissioned to make a matching pair of fountain and rollerball pens but in a Celtic style. I’m not aware of any matching kits but then I’m relatively new to pen turning! Can anyone suggest any kits please, all suggestions gratefully received!! Thanks in advance..
