What pen mill to use with Sedona Pen?

[Bobalu]

I purchased my first Sedona pen kit from WC. After downloading the instruction sheet from the web, I looked for the size of pen mills to use on the two different size tubes. Their instructions suggest squaring off the blank by sanding. I would rather use a pen mill. I have the 10mm size for the smaller tube, but don't know what to get for the larger tube. Can anyone help me here?

Make (or buy) spacers that fit over the pilot shaft.
I make my own out of wood or corrian drilled with a 7mm tube glued in. I have sets for each type of pen I make.
Arizona Silluette also sells pre-made spacers I believe.

do you have a chuck of some kind?

"Exotics" is now selling the "spacers" also, made by Hans Wunch. (an IAP member-Hewunch)

Yes, I have a drill chuck for the lathe.

I think this is the route I'll go. as I have some delrin here that will fit the bill. I did check out the AS site. Looks like their Baron insert will do the job, as it states the Baron and Sedona both have the same size tubes.
