Where can I get some turn between center bushings for Slimline 7mm pens?
How many do you need?Where can I get some turn between center bushings for Slimline 7mm pens?
Thanks for all the help everybody.
Does anyone who has used them know if they are long enough to place a guide bushing on them as well as support the brass tube?
I've been using a mandrel to turn but am looking for that next bit of accuracy.

I've been using a home-made set for a while, they look just like the Lazerline ones. Not sure what you mean about a "guide bushing". You just insert the ends of the bushings into the tube and snug them up between your dead and live center. No extra equipment needed.
PS Perhaps your thinking you can chuck up two blanks like you do on a mandrel? When you TBC it is pretty much one blank at a time.
He can do that, he'll just have to measure with calipers for the proper diameter.Thanks for all the help everybody.

Think the OP wants to use the bushings to replace the mandrel for other 7mm tube pens like a trimline.
The short answer is yes (the ones provided by Lazerlinez) if the guide bushing is quite narrow not more than maybe a quarter inch, and it would need to be a pretty tight fit over the end of the TBC bushing that goes in the tube..Thanks for all the help everybody.

I guess I'm having trouble explaining what I want to do in words that make sense.
All I really need to know is how long is the 7mm portion of the laserlinz tbc bushing that goes inside the brass tube?

I have a set of slimline bushings from Lazerlinez and about 1/2 inch does go inside the tube. Constant is a member here and you can contact him via Lazerlinez Vendor forum.I guess I'm having trouble explaining what I want to do in words that make sense.

Im learning and seeing so many different things i want to try. I will start out by investigating one thing and in the process get sidetracked in a different direction... Im more excited to get the inlay kits that i found on laserlinz site than trying the bushings... and the bandsaw will be here tomorrow that i didnt know i would want until i saw a segmented blank that i found while looking for a drill bit.
anyone else have this problem.?
