When I made my modified pen, it was very difficult to remove the mechanism. So I very lightly filed the ridges on the transmission until it stayed in, but was relatively easy to grip the slippery nib and pull it out. While testing the removability, don't insert all the way. You really don't have to worry about it staying together, because during use, the pen is being pressed together. I do like your new blank construction :>) Cheers

Hi bob, I don't usually leave comments on videos but I have one piece of advice.you can choose weather or not to take it 😃. When I started making pens very regularly I decided to take the plunge and buy a blank drilling chuck and a mandrel saver, is the best use of money I've found so far other than my carbide tools and my lathe of course. Keep up the good work! -Oliver

+Oliver Andrews Hello Oliver, I have those items but choose not to use them. When drilling on the lathe, the holes are sloppier. Plus with many of the blanks I make, their not square and don't lend themselves very well the the chuck application. Your idea is a good one it just doesn't work for me. Thank you very much for your comment I do appreciate it. Regards, Bob

RJBWoodTurner at first when I started issuing the church I couldn't get any of the holes to drill straight, but then I tried drilling with a 1/4" split point drill bit then finishing up with the brad point 7mm and it is much easier to get rid of a good chunk of the material before Sui the brad point drillbit.

Bob, have you tried to soak your veneers? May be beneficial in assembly and the water will just evaporate and the glue should hold tight and strong as equal as if done dry. I would like to try this out in the spring time (unheated shop up here), I will try just straight cuts vice your sine wave, to see if the pieces match up better. It is a wonderful abstract look. Thanks for taking your time making your video for us to view! Michael

I attempted this once, ran into an insurmountable problem and have not gone back to it. The problem the two contrasting colored blanks I started with two radical different densities thus I was breaking blades left and right trying to saw through them. After 3 blades on the 2nd cut I gave up. When I get done playing with your other fantastic ideas I'll come back to this one. Dave.

Use a dowel or chopped up pencils to clamp in the middle of concaved parts at the end, then you aren't putting pressure on one (or both) of the points and can apply more pressure as a whole. You could also use some strips of thick leather or compressible foam (old mouse mats / neoprene) on the convexed side to account for the bow. 12:30 as reference to what I'm talking about.
