Bushings HELP

[onewaywood]

I have some Rockler Cuban pen kits but not the bushings that the instruction sheet says.Are there any one's that will work 11a 22b like that,I would prefer not to do a'lot of measuring.

Same as any cigar kit.

That's what I thought, but they don't measure the same.

I used my cigar bushings on a Cuban and it came out right. Ymmv!

Thank's Dan, I will give another try.An old friend of mine retired
from turning and gave me some Cuban kits and some Rockler Manhattan kits I assume there the same as Sierra.?

I just checked both sets of my Rockler bushings. They match the diameters in the bushings and tubes charts. In fact, your post got me to confirm my son's problem with his last pen turned. It was a Smitty Cigar pen kit and the blanks were turned too low to match the hardware correctly. My son has apparently turned down the bushings in the processes of turning numerous cigar pens. I guess that set becomes spacers.
