Silent Pen_ No Lathe Pen Challenge
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- No power tools, no vice (which would make it much easier... probably next time).. I took this challenge as an evenings project and tho used just these hand tools in my room.
Tried to design and make it so that it's comfortable in the hand and fully usable. And the finish to suit my sweaty hands :). Now at least I have my unique pen which I'm looking forward to use.
(btw uploaded 20th Feb 8:55am in Prague which is 19th Feb 11:55pm in Las Vegas... phew)
Thanks for watching

I really like the design
Thank you! Watched your videos and I really like your projects too
Badger Workshop man, I really want one of those
This level of craftsmanship as well as presentation deserves more than a like
Also, I learned a lot about presentation techniques. That feature with camera focus adjust is simply ingenious. Are you of visual art' background?
Once again Congratulations,
Wojtek
Thanks a lot. I really appreciate such motivating comments. I'm an architect with passion in hand tools, woodworking especially and art as well but have never did a video like this so it was pretty new to me.
Thank you.
Radek
Incredible craftsmanship with just a chisel, hand drill, handsaw and sand paper.
Mighty impressive. You should be proud
wow!! very nice design!!!👍
Thank you very much!
Looks amazing! Can't wait to try it myself with some oak and maybe a fountain pen design. Would've been great to see some of the techniques a bit slower to follow along but it was still brilliant to watch!
Thank you! Go ahead and make one. Fountain pen is a good choice. I am planning to make one too but with different design. I think it would rather fit a bit more classic design than this is.
That's really cool. The design is original and stylish, the craftsmanship is great ... I wish this was my pen! Very, very inspiring. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Thank you very much for the comment. It's not hard to make one like this, any other or even better one. You sure could make your own. I'm glad you find it inspiring, thank you.
Very nice shape. I like triangles.
I like squares and circles ans circular squares
"triangles are my favorite shape, three points where two lines meet"
I like turtles
Wow! What a great design! Like no other; like the no lathe challenge!
Beautiful design but the best part for me were the sketches!
I'm glad you like it. Thanks!
That is gorgeous. I love how you did every step of it, idea, design, and product, AWESOME.
completely hand made.job well done indeed.brother if you don't know about instructables than definitely go their website there is a compition regarding woodworking.In my opinion this is a winning project.you have to just write about your build with some pictures.good luck and keep doing this.
Thank you. I know instructables but didn't notice the contests part. I will have a look and consider participating but I'd better have some detail photos of the process which I don't have. Or I could make a new one.. I'll see, thank you for the comment.
eRHonc Would you not be able to take stills from the video? I'm new to all this and stumbled across the video (gorgeous work, feels kind wasted on a ball point pen rather than a fountain but what do I know lol)
Sure I could take stills from the video but the quality and detail wouldn't be good enough I think. For a tutorial it would be a lot better to take some close shots, focus on details and show the process clearly. Thanks, I know a fountain pen would be better but I couldn't get a proper nib in time so guess what I'm going to do next time. And as I learn during the process I think the next pen will be even better made.
eRHonc oh man please do a tutorial. I like to design a lot, but never would I think of designing the very thing I use to design. please do one
Wow! The design is so cool!
Cool. Very unique design. I would love to have a pen like that for school
Thank you. Maybe you could make one or have someone made it for you? I've posted dimensions in the comments earlier and it's really not that hard.
love watching Videos like this just because of listening to the Sound. it is so satisfying
The same here. It's nice to hear what you see instead of listening to music.
wow! just watched this for the first time! so satisfying to see how you something from nothing. i would live to own one of those!!!
I like the vid, thanks. The clamping of the stock was adequate, but a bench vise might have been easier to use. Overall, there are many useful hand tool techniques shown, e.g. how to drill a straight deep hole with a brace & bit. Also, this would be a nice design for a knife, using 9mm snap-off blades.
Thank you. Bench vise would make it a lot easier. I didn't post all the footage because there was much more planing and it would be sooo boring. I actually don't own a vise. I could go and use one at my parents but I thought it will be just fine even without it so I used what I could have used. It would probably be a bit more complicated to build but I too can imagine an exacto knife that looks like the pen.
No idea how I found this video. But i watched the whole thing from start to finish. Oddly satisfying, great video!!
Thank you Ozzy (Chuck). Reading your comment is satisfying too.
Sweet an Slick, this may have inspired me to start making pens, my uncle used to
That's great, follow his steps and give it a go. It's not hard to start. And thanks.
Makes me want to learn more woodcrafts. Would like to see more vids like this but maybe more on the lines of a how to build instructional type.
This is absolutely beautiful. It looks like something from 50 years in the future!
Thank you. It's got no super powers though.
looks good! I was confused about the title it being called "silent" makes sense though. no noise was made during the making of the pen. lol
Thank you! You're right. I would have named it differently if only I had an idea. Therefore this one which at least describes the process somehow.
Good job, man! Slick design and a great result
Thank you!
This is a great project, and a gorgeous final product. Invest some time in growing your video skills, keep putting out quality projects like this, and I think you'd have a very popular channel!
Thank you a lot. I'm planning to give video editing a bit more time and to get some more skills. Hopefully I'll continue uploading more projects and give it a go. I'm already thinking about next one.
This is incredible, even if I had the same tools, I couldn't do as well as a job, thanks for the entertainment!
Thank you too! I tried to do my best but still it wasn't that hard. I think you would do well.
Nice pen! Very cool to see it made with only hand tools.
Very cool. Great job and that is a fantastic design.
Very nice can I buy one please! Great design! I can't wait to see your next one
Thank you! That would be great but as I've mentioned somewhere below I'd need to do some more testing and maybe some improvement to be sure it would do the service for entire life :). Hopefully I'll post another one soon.
That is a good looking pen. Nice design.
That drawing though!!
Thank you!
Lovely design. This has to be my fav. pen from the challenge.
Oh thank you. I would say pretty much the same about yours. I was watching it earlier and really liked the clean and precise work, the colours, the stitches! Great job. All your work looks great.
Nice sketches and an incredible pen, I really enjoyed the making process of it. I'm sure you're an industrial designer hahaha ... Cheers mate!
Thanks! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. Actually not a designer, I'm an architect. A little step aside. Cheers
This is A1, would love to see more stuff like this!
Thank you a lot! I didn't expect such reactions so now I'm really thinking of making some more projects.
No problem, It would be awesome to see some stuff like this with commentary or some input on the design process. Very cool project!
That's a real contender. I love it.
Thank you, I really appreciate it.
Wow! Very well done. Great job
Thank you!
awesome pen! beautiful design!
Thank you Karl
Beautiful piece, nicely done!
Beautiful work! I would love to see some more woodworking projects of yours, if you ever decide to make more videos :)
Thank you! I'm definitely planning to do more projects and videos so you'll see if you stay in touch :)
how badass that you can make your own pen
Love the pen, great design!!
love the design. now how to make a lead holder with that aesthetic?
Wow, I really didn't expect to get over 100K views and now it's still madly going up. Thank you all for watching, commenting, liking and following. When I thought about the challenge I was just taking the video as a part of it. I expected to get just a few views, maybe someone's interest but didn't get high expectations. This all is giving me motivation to do more videos and more projects... Sure everybody would like to win the challenge but this already is my winning. Thank you all!
Looks amazing. Feels so soft to the eyes.
Well done!
Sweet design!! :) Very clever man.
Pěkná práce, už jen ten sketch mne zaujal. Celkem se mi líbil přístup k úkolu. +1
Díky, jsem rád že se líbí nejen výsledek a že zaujalo.
easily my favorite of all of them! well done!
Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it and appreciate it.
definitely a well designed pen, love it!! now i wanna try making my own XD
Thank you, I'm really glad you love it. In the comments below there are some dimensions so if you wanna make similar one you can get inspired :)
it really amaze me when the pen is silent but making it has a noise. hahaha can you make a noise pen and making it silent? i promise i will be going to amaze much more 😂 hihi
haha, I'd make the most possible noisy pen but then you need to wear some ear plugs when writing with it and believe me - that's not much of a win :). The making noise is just a little silent quiet noise - isn't it?
that's a nice looking pen! well done
maybe next time, put some music over the video
Thank you! I was a bit in a rush as the SW didn't want to export the video but next time I'll have that in mind and try to do better.
and oil finish that pen .. it would give the ben more comfortable feel and a nice shine
Beautiful pen!
It looks pretty neat. And I guess it will look even better if you will slow a little during some parts. The sanding and all that is ok to fast forward, but some details are interesting enough to don't speed the camera that much.
Keep it up!
Nice work bro!!! Very detailed!! Keep up!!
Thank you! I definitely will.
Bro. Sick.
Gorgeous!
Very cool! Well done!
Very nice design, sleek and compact yet stylish and ergonomic. I love the art but youve gotta add some music and narration to your videos.
Thank you for nice comment. I'm keeping all the advices in my mind and will try to include them in my next videos. Thanks.
VERY WELL MADE GREAT JOB
you work incredibly fast.
Wow.... Just.... Wow 😮
For the win!
Thank you! There are many great projects and I'm not being overoptimistic. Let the best one win.
very good design!!!
Nice, good job!
Thank you!
really liked it! the background/working noises as well (a bit diresta style). It often bothers me a bit when I see a great project, but with awful music put onto it.
so: well done, hope to see more projects!
Thanks a lot. I also enjoy the quietness and the sounds of the scene itself instead of putting a music that absolutely doesn't fit. Music can be good but needs wise choosing and using so no music is usually better choice :).
Hope to put some more projects on, thanks.
I'm fascinated with the concept of this. is it possible to get a rough draft design with a step by step. I'd like to play around with it
Thanks. I'm glad you like it. I think it would be possible but the step by step would take some time as I'm quite busy now. You could see all the steps in the video but If it's not clear I can sketch some instructions later.
eRHonc I'm mostly concerned with the angles used. im fairly confident I can piece together every other step from the video
Ok - the angles of the profile-triangle are 68°-68°-44° and the ends and cap cuts are done under 60°. The overall length is 158 milimetres and the final height is 13 mm. Hope that helps.
I would gladly watch a 12.5 minute video at half this speed ;)
Impressive but I'm still not sure how the ink works in this pen design? Is there some sort of well, or do you just dip it? Besides that, this is a very inspiring video. I love to work with wood and to sketch. This is best of both worlds right here!
Thank you very much! I also like to work with wood and do some design. And that's where it all began. The pen is actually a rollerpen so you just change the refill inside when you have to. I most probably will make a fountain pen as well but I'm not sure when - it could take some time.
+eRHonc Oops I didn't see your reply. Thanks for taking the time to tell me. I just trimmed some moderately thick branches off my tree and thought about doing my own rendition. Thanks again for your inspiration ;)
Krásná práce a super design
Díky za pochvalu.
beautiful pen :-)
Great work! Did you have any inspirations on this design? Or were you just going for something different?
Thank you! As it was No Lathe challenge I was thinking about something else than simply round design and the triangular shape is comfy in hand and could be easily produced with the tools used. That was the main idea. The final shape and proportions just came out after some designing process.
So cool!! I'd so buy one!!
Thank you! I was actually thinking about making few more but I would rather test it some more before "releasing".
Hey yeah that would be a good idea I think you'd sell a lot of these!!
It went by so fast I was confuse, but it does look cool
Wow really nice job
Nice. I like it. And I usually dont like things.
Amazing
Wow, this indeed IS a hand crafted pen where no lathe has been used (I've seen another one where a makeshift lathe was used, which I wouldn't call a lathe-free design :P )
A u mna mas extra body aj za Pribinacek :)
Right, there are so many ways/designs to make a pen without lathe. Why imitating a lathe pen then? :)
Vdaka aj za ty extra body. :)
Hey e, the first time to your channel. I really the video bout the "PENS". I'm a collector and enthusiast of pens. So just videos right up my alley.i dont have a lathe so, I really like this!
Question, where can I find pen parts and DONT say internet!!lol haha. I have looked?
Keep up the good work 👌 and videos
Hite up sometime soon.
Un trabajo espectacular! realmente bonito Felicidades! Saludos desde Spain
¡Muchas gracias! Saludos de la República Checa
Love the design, excellent work. What type of wood did you use?
Thank you. I'm not sure about the wood but I think it is beech. The wood is many years old, maybe even few decades. I'll try to find out to be absolutely sure what it is.
pretty dang cool man
You were my fav! :)
I understand you made it yourself, but it is simply incredible, do you by chance sell handmade pens? I would pay for that
Beautiful
Thanks David.
thats a chanel boost
NICE work I LOVE IT
What I would do to get my hands on one of those
beautiful
Just stumbled upon this at 1am and I think it's amazing. Probably the most beautiful pen I've seen in a while!
What wood did you use here? It has a lovely grain!
Thank you. That's really motivating and gladdening.
I don't know what wood is it. I got it from my dad where it was lying for quite a few years. I saved some more so I'll try to find out and let you know.
This is so cool :) thank you for the video. Can I ask where did you get the stencil? It will be really handy to have pleas help. In the video the one that lye close to the 90 degree square
Thank you for the comment :).. Just google "rolling ruller" if this is what you mean.
Thats awsome man ..
Looks kinda like the boxes for Rotring stuff
Nice craftsman’s ship
český zlatý ručičky
skvělí koncept jen by to chtělo hudbu do pozadí. Taky
chvilkama jsem i přeskakoval protože některé pasáže byli moc zdlouhavé.
prosím pokračuj.
Díky, snažím se co to dá, i když tolik času nezbývá. Měl jsem co dělat, abych stihl poslat video před ukončením soutěže a sám moc zkušeností s upravováním videí nemám, takže u dalšího se budu snažit o lepší zpracování i zachycení. A pokračovat se teda taky pokusím, díky za podnětný koment a pochvalu.
vůbec není zač! máš velice kvalitní tvorbu která zaujala i lidí ze zahraničí, což se nepovede každému.
so cool.
thank you
It does seem more silent than my diesel powered pencils!
Lindisimo. Yo me compraria uno, sin dudas.
now it's time to make a diecast mode
Paráda, akorat mi nejí jasné, jak jste vyvrtal tu díru ručně tak, aby sla přesně středem.ja s tím zrovna teď zápasím
Děkuji. Je potřeba mít nějaké vodítko, které povede rovnoběžně s osou vrtu, ve videu je vidět, že mám vratný kousek chycený přes další dřívko. To jsem srovnal tak, aby právě vedlo rovnoběžně s osou a je vystrčené, pak už jen hlídat vrták, aby jel v ose podle toho vodítka. V podstatě je to to samé jako když se vrtá kolmo podle úhelníku. Ještě je možnost začít stejně z obou stran, uprostřed se díry potkají, záleží ale na aplikaci, jestli je důležitější mít přesnou díru po celé hloubce nebo přesně trefené otvory na koncích, v případě, ze by vrták stejně kousek uhnul. Tak ať se podaří.
Muy buen trabajo.
Anyone else think his table is satisfying?
I like the design, but I feel like I didn't even get a proper look at it, because even the footage showing it off was so jittery and short :(
Sorry for that. As the time goes by I see a lot of mistakes and the final showing footage is a big one. I really should have given it a bit more time. I'll surely keep an eye on it in my future videos. But I'm glad you like the design, thank you.
Beautiful piece. Not sure why it's called silent pen, though.
Thanks! It's called silent as the process of making it was pretty silent, no power tools no hammering etc.
Would have named it better if I had better idea.
No. It's not a bad idea. However, maybe quiet pen would be better? Even planes and chisels produce nice soft sounds.
You're right. Sharp tools are great to work with and great to watch doing their work too :). I agree - quiet pen would be better. I have to give it a bit more time before uploading next time, now I'll just leave it the way it is.
