Calling all veteran turners, or any good suggestions. I finally had a chance to try my hand at a scalloped pen blank. Got it all cut and glued with spalted maple with copper accents. I roughed up the copper but CA just doesn't like copper as well as aluminum. Flew apart in mid rounding to see it it was even worthy of being a pen. Got it pieced back together and found I lost one copper piece. But had enough to do a bolt action tec pen, got it coated and finished and ( stupid me ) didn't measure before assembly. I didn't go small enough and ruined the hardware disassembling. So what I asking for is what kit would work for this blank so I don't have to go back to the lathe and go smaller. Size is 0.475 in diameter and 2.5 in. long.
