Hi everybody! I have a newby question. My brother-in-law wants to learn to make pens. Now, I am well set up the way I like to make pens, but he wants to get the equipment for himself, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to invest big bucks to get set up like I am. So, what is a good quality beginner mandrel setup nowadays? I have him set up with a lathe and a basic set of tools, so to get started I think all he really needs is the mandrel and supplies.
I'll let him get hooked on his own, and then move him into turning between centers when he is hopeless. But for right now I don't want my Sister mad at me for costing him a bunch just to get started. :beat-up:
Thanks in advance!
