Long barrel

[jttheclockman]

What is a good quality and I mean good quality kit with good platings that has a long single tube?? Longer than Sierras of any kind. And where can they be purchased. I like the one that Skippy used but it was mentioned of problems. Any others and if you have a photo as an example if you did one. Thanks

OOPS I should have mentioned one more thing, no clicks. I hate them all kinds. I am a take a cap off or twist person. Will only make clicks if requested.

Sorry. :biggrin:I was going to write that in the original post but hit the post button too soon and as soon as you mentioned it I remembered I forgot to include that.

Your pens are really nice but not a click person. I have those kits but for emergencies only.

I personally like the Executive. It has a nice long barrel and comes in several platings. The long barrel shows off the wood and/or arcylic very well. It comes in either pen or pencil. The kits won't abuse the bank account and my small customer base like them very well.

Hmm. No clicks. I really like the long clicks for showing off a blank. Try a Zen then. It has a longer barrel that shows well with a magnetic cap that is also postable. You can get them at Craft USA and I beleive also at exoticblanks.

I just tried a couple of the Civil War replica pens with mini balls on the ends. They are very long and one piece blank as I had trouble drilling them because of the length of the blank. Don't have pictures yet but they are a twist pen and I got them from PSI.

Try making some long slimlines with no center band. My favorite long pen is the Executive and Ben is right about it but now that I don't purchase from PSI I am not sure what I will replace it with! Another that can be made long is the Chicago kit if you customize it for a full sized cartridge. Cut your wood to 3 1/4" and purchase some extra tubes to allow for the extra length or if you feel lucky you can cut your tubes in half and glue that into each end of the tube!
