Anyone know what they make the bushings out of? Is it high-carbon steel?
Anyhow, I just made a string of American pens (6) and the last few have lousy joints in one particular spot. I know I am hard on the bushings, I'm learning how to stay off of them with the skew and sandpaper.
Seems to me that if they were to make them out of HSS they'd last a good bit longer and shouldn't cost a terrible bit more.
