With help from the local MIG welding shop and doing what the Chinese do best, copy things! I came up with this press that works a treat.

Being new to pen turning I didn't want to pay around $70 to Woodcraft or the like for their press and didn't, all in for $20 and half an hour in the workshop.

Enjoy . . . .

What a great idea! I just bought a pen press the other day. I didn't even think to try to make one, but did make a pen jig for drilling and that works pretty good. Have you used this yet on a pen? Fay

I saved even more money, and use the vice on my woodworking bench. I never have seen the need for a special tool, just soft wood pads on the vise. Yours looks nice.
