Hi All,
Spent some time in the shop today and was able to make a pen using a JrGent kit from Smitty's Pen Works.Thanks to Smitty for the quick shipping,as always.
I ran into a problem when I went to trim the larger cap barrel.I did not have a barrel trimming sleeve that matched the diameter of the brass tube.i ended up freehanding it close on a disc sander and then block sanded it to finished size.
My disc sander is not stable,accurate enough to build a jig like I have seen here on the forum/library.
Are there other inserts that I need to purchase?
Thanks,
Andy
