This (http://content.penturners.org/library/general_reference/psi_bush_tube.pdf) lists the length at 2.88 inches.

So much for getting 2 out of a 5 inch blank.

If the Executive is a new to you, be sure to paint BOTH the tubes and the inside of the blank if you are turning acrylic. The ends get quite thin and you will be able to see the tubes through the acrylic if you don't. Don't ask how I know that .....

Not new to me but PSI does not sell the tubes in that length I have to cut them to length and have some decal orders so I needed to get the correct size in order to make the 3/8" tubes correctly...thanks to all who answered...

Wood turningz sells executive tubes 5 for $2.75

The link is: Executive Pen Tubes (5 tubes) - WoodTurningz

A Polaris or Woodcraft's Atlas is 2.84". The Executive is 2.88. I don't think .04" is going to make much difference.

It's strange that none of the Executive kit listings tell you that.

The listings all say PKT38-8 which is the 10" 8-pack.

Bet if you go to their website and plug in that number they'll come up.

The bushing/tube info in the IAP library has this information in it as well.

According to the spreadsheet the Civil war kit uses the same tube as the executive - PKCWPENTU.

I just checked the tubes from an Executive and Civil War and they are the same. The spreadsheet is accurate.
