Le Roi v2 question

[cseymour]

Hello Ed and Dawn
Just a quick question about the Le Roi V2 kits ( regular, LB, click)
In some of the descriptions it says a 26/64 bit is used -- is that used for all the Le Roi kits?

Thank you

I think Ed posted recently about the Le Roi V2 kits they sell and I think that post was relevant to your question ... could be wrong.

The name "LeRoi" was used for many kits Smitty had made. Some use normal sierra tubes, some slightly smaller and some about 3/8".

So, NO, the LeRois are NOT all the same. We are working on giving each pen a product number. THAT will be consistent and will use the same bushings for each designation (001 through 007) I believe there are three possible bushing interior diameters.

I've done several LeRoi Elegant V2's (tube OD measuring right at 3/8 or 47/128), and find that Letter W drill works well with most wood blanks and CA glue, and 25/64 drill if i'm painting tubes and/or blank and using epoxy. Nice kit, and well received.
