Survival ballpoint pen from Berea

[Rodnall]

Trying to get back to pen turning and have a bunch of cut, drilled and tubes glued in blanks. Unfortunately, I don't know which blank goes to what kit, lol. I was hoping someone could tell me the lengths of the tubes for the survival pen kit. I don't see it on the bushing and tube chart for Berea but maybe I missed it.

Thanks, Rod

Just measured a kit (bought it about a month ago, so should be current but who knows....):

Small tube O.D. = 10.47mm (0.4125"), let's call it 10.5mm
Small tube I.D. ~ 10mm
Small tube length = 2.05"

Large tube O.D. = 12.96mm (0.51"), let's call it 13mm
Large tube I.D. ~ 12.5mm
Large tube length = 2.06"

Hope that helps.
