I received my rikon mini lathe and now starting to gather some parts I need. I'm quite confused as which is which but I believe I'll learn something. Thank you for the video, it helps me a lot.

[@ChadSchimmel]

That's awesome! And yes you will learn a lot as you go. Glad the video helped :-)

[@bzflowerbee]

@@ChadSchimmel Thanks. Do you have a video that shows how to drill the blank?

[@cesarleylim]

Great informative video i messed up my bushings any suggestions how identified them so i can put them right for the right pen

[@ChadSchimmel]

Maybe measure with calipers? We try to keep all of ours in pop tops for this reason. Good luck!
On penturners.org there is a bushing chart with all the measurements available. Hope that helps!

Nice video, thx for explanation..
But i have a queation... would be possible to add some aditional parts to attach rings (mostly wood or titan ring cores) so i dont need to buy aditional ring mandrel..

[@ChadSchimmel]

Would it be possible, yes.. but you might have to make parts. Not aware of anything that does that, that would go on a pen mandrel.

[@tolleson49]

They make ring making parts that mount on pen mandrels, check out turners warehouse or wood turners catalog
