Mandrels & Centers
The mandrel is what holds your blank on the lathe while you turn it round, and the right mandrel can be the difference between a perfectly concentric pen and an oval one. We stock a full range of mandrels and centers for pen and project turners: the Turn Between Centers (TBC) mandrel system for the most concentric results on single-tube pens, the Keyless Pen Mandrel MT#2 (the fastest mandrel on the market to set up), the Morse Taper Maxi-Mandrel with its sliding collet for variable-length blanks, Pen Mandrel Savers that protect your mandrel and live center from bending, and our Universal Mandrel for honey dippers and bottle stoppers. Also stocking ring mandrels including the One and Done adjustable ring mandrel that fits on your existing 7mm pen mandrel.
