I'm trying to keep the costs down as this is just a hobby for me.
Anyone have any alternatives to buying a pen mill and the barrels for all the different sizes tubes? I'd like a nice even 90 degree barrel end so things fit together well but I['d also like to spend my budget on cool material to turn, not on more tools!
I use the Jet Mini lathe and plainold gouges and skews with a mandrel from Woodcraft (the cheaper of the two they had - of course) and kits from pocwoodwroking.com - mostly sxlimline.
