Pen Blank Drilling Jig

[rizaydog]

I just finished my plans for a pen blank drilling jig. I built this about a year ago and it works great. Take a look HERE for the complete plans. Comments are always welcome.

Thanks for posting this. I am going to have to build one to replace the flimsy piece of junk I bought from Craft Supply.

I find that keeping a sacrifice piece of wood under the blanks for support avoids the blowouts that can occur with drilling in a drill press. Perhaps a dado or rebate to allows a small movable "zero tolance" insert to slide under the blanks.

The approach does provide a practical low cost approach that should work

I hope you all enjoy it. As you can see, I got a lot of use out of mine so far.
