I've got two Axminster mandrels.
The first one I bought was this one
I wasn't very impressed as apart from the 7mm Axmister bushes most bushes seemed loose on it.
So I bought the Axmister Deluxe Adjustable Pen Mandrel
This doesn't seem much better.

The next pen I turn will be between centres to see if that is any better
