Question

Hi not been in here for ages....

Must admit not turned many pens either for a while...

Here we go to make a fool of myself again and show my in-depth knowledge of the subject..lol

Does anyone know which of any of the suppliers of simple slim line sort of pens 7mm ones sell the on their own the ( this is where I might look really stupid) do they call them the transitions you know the twisty bits...

I have some bits of kits ( you know what was left from the disasters) I want my son to have a go at turning so not expensive or the high quality ones But I am missing the above..

Hello Kevin.
I think that most companies that sell slimline pen kits also sell the transmissions.
I know that cs crafts and penkitsandbits both sell them ( look up twist mechanisms on their web page )

Hope this gets things started again

If you follow this I regard adding an upgrade mechanism as a great step forward anyway.
