I seldom use CA in the turning process, so when I do, I take every precaution known to mankind. Nevertheless, I somehow managed to glue the antler blanks I was finishing up to the mandrel. By dumb luck, I was able to save the mandrel and the pen, so the only casualty were the bushings I used to press the pen off the mandrel. I'm sure someone has thought of this, but... we know that there are plastics and polymers that CA doesn't stick to. Why doesn't someone produce a mandrel made of something that CA doesn't stick to that the pen blanks, once turned, could be moved to for CA application?
