  • I made a pen press using a Horizontal toggle clamp and some scrap material I had laying around the shop. The pen press works great and is a lot easier to use than a pistol grip clamp.

    What turning tool is that you began using right after you seated the ferrule down to shape the handle?? Very nice piece sir!!

  • @numberkruncherr
    @numberkruncherr 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just thought I'd mention I bought the plans and made this press. Mine's not quite so pretty because it's made out of 18mm plywood, but it works great.
    I still need to turn a handle though, haven't done this yet and the little one on the clamp doesn't give enough leverage for fine control on tighter fits.

  • @eltee9547
    @eltee9547 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sir,
    That's an impressive pen press. Have you considered the possibility of getting it patented? It looks and functions a lot better than the ones that are currently available commercially. Just one man's opinion.😉

  • @danielsmail8131
    @danielsmail8131 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    First... great to see a new video!
    Second...love to see a great new homemade jig!
    Third... I love the custom handle, it makes such a difference when you see plain cheap stuff on tools and then you spend a few minutes and make it so much better, it's why I love Woodworking! I just got my lathe and plan on making all sorts of new handles! In fact I think I will head to my shop right now!!!!

      +fiberinspector I heated the bolt and melted the HDPE. Once melted I folded the HDPE around the bolt. I have detailed video on how I did it, if interested th-cam.com/video/rRwTTHVMWFw/w-d-xo.html
