I remember buying a bag of these only a few months ago. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I stored them or where I bought them from. I couldn't find then from some of our popular suppliers.

If any one knows, please inform me. They are the size used for the professor/exemplar and Aero twist.

Thank you.

I can usually find who I bought stuff from by looking in my emails, or my Paypal history, or my credit card statements. (It's nearly always further back in time than I first thought :smile:)
 
I have 27/64 tubes, could that be the size your looking for or are you sure they are 23/64.
I bought these from Woodnwhimsies.
 
Are you sure you bought 10" lengths and not a bag of precut tubes??? Ask ED he sells the kit he should know if that exists.
 
Tony I'm not understanding something. I measured the tubes from the kits I have on hand and some replacement tubes, the od measures .3495-.350 not 23/64.The pen components od measures .331-.332. As the instructions show using the 23/64 drill would give .005 on a side clearance for gluing the tube.
 
Thank you all. Yes, I am sure. I will write to Roger - they weren't list on the website, but they may have them. Thank you.

Thank you, no worries. They may be labeled 23/64 on the packaging - who knows what they really are? They work well the pens they are prescribed for. Thank you again.
 
I know. But the packaging stated 23/64 tubes, just as it states 3/8, 25/64, 27/64, 10.5, and 12.5. Thank you JT!

Understand. I was looking at online metal suppliers like K&S to see if anything similar. I had tried to source some 10" tubes awhile back but never came up with anything.
 
No worries. I will just buy the Professors in bulk from CSUSA. I just wonder where I bought them the first time. I have to call PSI, maybe that is where. Their catalogue doesn't show them. I am good. Thank you for all of your suggestions and help!

If you have the package maybe post a photo and someone will recognize. Or is there a name on the package. Hey you started this and now we need to follow this mystery for others to note. We need answers. The public wants to know.:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: In fact the world wants to know and even the people on Mars wants to know. Yea that's right Mars they do pen turning up there too.:biggrin::biggrin:
