It sounds like a simple question, but it really isn't.
Do you turn each pen one at a time, or do you make up a batch of 10, then turn them all at once?
Do you prepare each blank one at a time, or do you prep a bunch of them all at once?
How do you finish them? Again, one at a time, or a bunch all at once?
If you prep a batch to turn, how do you keep them in order, and make sure you use the right bushings for the pen you're turning?
Do you have a storage solution for after you glue up the tubes in the blanks? (Like a rack with nails or something to hold them? Or pegboard maybe?)
When you turn, do you turn a bunch of the same pens, or do you mix it up with different kits?
I am asking because I might be coming into my first order of 25 Slim Line pens, and they will need to be made quickly.
I am pretty slow when it comes to making a pen, and I'd like to speed it up by any means I can.
I don't want to cut corners though.
Thanks for any help.
