Turn more accurate, consistent, and concentric pen barrels with this one-of-a-kind mandrel system. The Turn Between Centers mandrel rides on 2 centers rather than a typical rod Ð so more dead-on turning. There is no mandrel shaft to bend so your turned barrel will eliminate an out-of-round blank, producing a blank that mates precisely with your pen parts. The system includes an MT headstock insert and live MT tailstock insert - each with 7mm pins (similar to a 7mm mandrel shaft). Mount your bushings onto the pins, mount your pen blank, then bring the tailstock forward to secure your blank between centers. Ideal for single tube pen styles. For #1 Morse Taper Lathes.

    Fantastic addition to your pen turning gear.
    It may seem less efficient for two barrel pens, but it's well worth it for the time saved adjusting, tracking down spacers, etc.
    Also, unlike turning on the standard basic setup, you'll never have to worry about overturning or otherwise bending your mandrel.
