Can I Salvage a Cigar Pen Mistake?

[Karl_99]

I turned a cigar pen blank of Gmelia burl for a customer order and after I was finished found out that the bushings were too worn. :frown: (lesson learned - measure bushings before turning). Is there a pen that I can make using an undersize (.002") cigar pen blank? I thought about turning an Aero with a blank.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Karl

BUILD UP CA FINISH.

You can build up the blanks with CA by quite a bit and it will not be noticeable when finished out.

Sounds like a good idea!
