Something new, to me, to try. Thanks
Thanks for an informative video, quite inspirational. It has helped to take my pen turning to a new level.

+David Morgan Thanks David, yea you can't get in a hurry when doing the segmenting. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Unreal! True artist. I'll be using the drill press technique on my next assembly.
mr LL nice work
Very handsome. Love the contrast of figured dark wood and straight grain light. Beautiful CA finish. 😎👍
Great video
Second video I have watched from you. And will subscribe.
I really like your method of squaring up the ends of the pen blank. Great Idea.

Hey John it’s pretty good for both uses. Thanks
Great idea with the alcohol. I have had blanks come apart with aluminum without it.
Awesome. Really like the idea for trimming the ends with sandpaper on the lathe and using the drill press for assembly and keeping the drill bit cool.

Lynn -- Thanks for this video. You may have helped me resolve an issue I was having with some segmented blanks I had made. They were coming apart after drilling. I think I may have gotten the epoxy too hot when I drilled the blanks. Your tip of using denatured alcohol (and showing how much time you take to drill) may be the solution I was looking for.

+David Walser hey thanks foe watching David, yea just make sure the epoxy is cured (don't rush that) and be patient drilling with. Sharp bit and I think you'll reduce your failures. I still have failures from time to time but not as often as I once did. Thanks for the comment.

Lynn, I shiver when I see you using your fingers to remove the shavings. Aluminium shavings will rip your skin
Could you use the same pattern with two brass tubes for a slimline pen. Love the channel.
fnatastic work

That's a great looking pen Sir. Sometimes when I use aluminium I get discolouration on the wood, the light wood in particular. How would you prevent that from happening?
Thanks Lynn! Great KZread I really like the way you set up your table saw. Do you have a KZread for how you made the fixture on your table saw?

+arhaught Thanks you, I really like my segmenting sled wind yes there is a two part video on how I made the sled titled "How to make a segmenting sled". Thanks for watching
Perfectly executed Mr.Lacey! If I may may point out something I have run into lately. The brass tubes on pen kits I have been receiving from different sources have been scuffed up as you say , but I have noticed a thin film of , what appears to be lacquer, I have been removing this with a piece of my 100 grit sand paper and scuffing them myself. I want to make doubly sure I have a proper bond. I dont know if you have run into this or not but I would appreciate a reply from you on whether the lazerline kits have this very very thin coating on the brass tubes.. Excellent video as always Sir, and thank you for sharing the "tricks of the trade" with all of us out here in "tube land". PS I now know why Bob collaborated with you on that one video!

Hey Mick, I hadn't paid any notice to a thin film as you say but I always scuff up pen tubes and clean with denatured alcohol and have never had an issue. Thanks for watching.

Yes Sir I understand the only reason I said anything about that was because in the video you mentioned that this pen tube came scuffed already and you didnt show you scuffing it up ,,,so just thought I would mention that .. thanks so much for the reply and kind words!
Since I have many common size bits, I just change bits out when they get hot. For me it is easier.

Hey Mike - Thanks for watching and yes I think I bought an aluminum sheet at Hobby Town. I have also used aluminum soft drink cans. But when I do I take the time to strip all the coatings from both sides. Thanks again.
Drill a small pilot hole first. Works for me.

These kits are known as ‘Zeta’ in UK. About 8-9 dollars each
Hey Lynn, I really appreciate your video--one quick question--what and where did you get the dust collector intake 'hood' that is mounted to your lathe--I really want one of those!! Thanks--Don
