- This simple Pen Press is designed to be used in conjunction with your lathe. There are two nylon pads
- the white one has a small dimple in the centre to hold the nib in line. The black pad has a concave dome cut into it to make sure the other end of the pen is also held central and stops it from slipping out.
- Both pads come supplied on a 1 morse taper shaft.
- To use the pen press. Put the white pad into the headstock taper and the black pad into the tailstock
- insert the nib into the white pad and slide the tails stock in until the black pad is pressed against the other end and lock off.
- Simply wind the tailstock shaft forward which will press the pen parts together. Once the parts are pressed together unwind the tailstock and remove the pen.
