Looking to trade this for other items I can use.

Looking for pen kits- do not need slimline-or cigar kits.

Will also entertain Burl wood trades can be slab or square or pen blanks.

Will sell for $40 shipped if you have nothing to offer in trade. US transactions only.



When making pens, it is vital that the pen blank is drilled squarely with the hole dead center. Many pen blanks are discarded because they do not run true on the lathe. This pen vice ensures that every hole drilled is centered and true so you never waste a pen blank again. The aluminum jaws feature full length vertical V-grooves which hold the corners of the pen blank in position. The jaws move simultaneously when the vice knob is turned along two threaded steel bars and two steel guide rods. With the ability to accept stock up to 1 1/2" square, this vice will accommodate blanks for any size of pen. The jaws are mounted on a thick plastic base which is designed to be drilled through at first use. This hole will then act as a guide for all subsequent drilling operations. The broad base can be clamped easily to any drill press table. This vice is essential for all pen makers.
