  • If you enjoy pen turning, this is a cool woodworking project where I modified slimline pen and made it into a one piece slimline pen. I saw this pen that has been created by a few people on RUclips so I decided to make my own. I like the one piece look and feel if this style pen. It allows the pen to be a little thicker in the center which I like too. This is one of many diy crafts and projects that’s been fun to make.it's especially a good woodturning project for beginners and makes an awsome woodworking gift. I'll have more on the way.
    One example is from Tommy G • Pen #2: Modified Slimline
    Another is from RJBWoodTurner • Modified Slim Line Pen...

    Probably great for pen turners who already make pens. Me... not so much. Got my lathe 3 months ago in December of '22 to turn pens and so far I've made dozens of bowls, including a 4 corner square one, plus candle holders, cactus pots. But no pens, even though the lathe came with a big box of pen supplies and lathe accessories. Kind of intimidated by the smallness, I guess.
    Anyhow, a great video for pen turners.
    That was an amazing feat to drill a straight hole thru the blank free hand. You sure impressed this old carpenter with that trick.

    Very similar to a video I saw the other day about a homemade marking tool. Very cool stuff. Nice simple project (assuming you have access to a lathe) but definitely gives a bit of a Wow factor when you bust out that hand made pen to sign on the dotted line.

  • @richstewart1
    @richstewart1 4 года назад

    I made two of these and I really like them. My only issue is they are extremely hard to twist to get the nib out. My wife and kids have a hard time using them. Do you have a remedy for this? Thanks for the video. I had given up pen turning because of the expense. Now I can make nice pens with the cheap slimline pen.

  • @BrainFizz
    @BrainFizz 5 лет назад +1

    Hey Jake! Nicely done.... I’ve always been put pen turning as slim lines really make me made, Ive since found single barrel pens, and picked up the bug again!!
    Halfway down this rabbit hole I stumbled on the modified slimline projects! Interested that you make your tubes longer..... do you cut them both longer, or just one of them??

    • @Jake.of.All.Trades
      @Jake.of.All.Trades  5 лет назад +1

      I actually have one tube cut longer for when i am turning the pen. I like the pen a little longer than what the kit comes with. When I am done, i remove the longer tube and still use the brass tube that the kit comes with. I still have plenty of the transmission/ front brass to connect to the back brass. Hope that helps.

    Hi, can you give me the name of your glue? Thanks

  • @charruauno386
    @charruauno386 4 года назад +1

    Thank you for showing was a very ingenious idea, thank you. Now my question, I see that you press the nib into the tube, is that the brass tube that you custom cut, correct, and if it is can you determinate the size of the tube and the pen wood kit. I ask because I will try it by making a metal pen. Thank you and have a nice day.

    • @Jake.of.All.Trades
      @Jake.of.All.Trades  4 года назад

      You can use the custom tube or the one that comes on the kit as long as the custom tube is not considerably longer than the stock tube.

  • @talonerider
    @talonerider 5 лет назад

    Really like the video but I was wondering why you expanded the end of the tube?

    • @Jake.of.All.Trades
      @Jake.of.All.Trades  5 лет назад +2

      when I cut the tube with the tube cutter it pushes the end in. I use the tapered punch to bring the shape of the brass back to straight instead of concaved. hope that helps.

  • @seankelley3489
    @seankelley3489 5 лет назад +1

    so you mentioned all the woodworking places to get the drill bit. Would the local HD not have a suitable bit? seems they would be cheaper and should just be a long bit? I am new to this so not sure if there is something special about this bit.

    • @Jake.of.All.Trades
      @Jake.of.All.Trades  5 лет назад

      Its a spade bit designed specifically for drilling that size hole. Woodcraft, Rockler and I think even Amazon carries them. Most brass is 3/8 so you need the corresponding bit.

    If i saw it right you only hade one tube glued in and removed one and assembled it with only one ?? Love the look of the pen but was not very clear on that pert of assembly. Thanks

    • @Jake.of.All.Trades
      @Jake.of.All.Trades  5 лет назад

      that's correct. only the back is glued in. The front tube is pressed into the transmission so the nib, front brass and transmission are then pushed into the back brass.

      @delanorrosey4730 Год назад

      You pull the whole assembly out of the front. Looks like he used the front brass, but didn't glue it to the blank. Also looks like he cut a shorter brass tube for the rear to allow the front brass to seat up against.

    I have a 6 pound piece of 95% black ebony that's 8 1/2" by 8 1/2" by 2 1/2" thick. Have you ever turned ebony pens and do you think it a waste to use it all for pens?

    • @Jake.of.All.Trades
      @Jake.of.All.Trades  4 года назад

      I've never turned ebony. I know it's very hard though. I would try cutting off a piece and doing at least one to say you have an ebony pen.

      It's a Japanese pull saw. You can get them from Roclker or Woodcraft or Even Amazon. There are different styles. Mine is the Dozuki. I really like it. it just takes time to practice cutting on the back stroke.
