I made a "new series" FP for a customer recently. It looks like she will be asking me to make more of these thin fountain pens. I like the kit, have to be careful cutting the "tennon." but it feels nice.
If I will be making more of these, I was trying to figure out what size barrel trimmer sleeve to order as that might speed up my process. The companies selling this pen kit don't have the trimmer sleeve for sale, at least automatically linked to this pen kit.
What should I order to best true up the blank?
Or should I man up and just make the sanding disc for my lathe and use a knockout punch that just fits inside the tube to flush?
I'm open to all thoughts on this.
