Installing Pen Mandrel
Screw the mandrel (A, Fig. 10) into the threads in
the headstock spindle and place the other end on
the tip of the live center of the tailstock as shown.
The barrel(s) of a pen can be placed between
bushings, and held snug on the mandrel by the
knurled nut (B, Fig. 10).
If you are new to the practice of pen turning, a book
entitled “Pens from the Wood Lathe” (stock #
709123) will demonstrate techniques and tips on
turning, and is available from WMH Tool Group.
Complete supplies for pen turning are also offered –
