Sean Rubino's video: Make Wood and Acrylic Pens How-To Ep 60

In this video I show my process for turning pens on the lathe. I make 2 pens, one acrylic pen and one hybrid, wood and acrylic, pen. I buy my pen kits from Amazon, Penn State Industries, Craft Supplies USA, WoodTurningz, Rockler, Woodcraft, and Lee Valley. The two kits shown in this video are the Gatsby pen kit from Penn State Industries and the Ultra Cigar Pen is from Lee Valley. I like both of these kits as they produce a nice sized pen that feels good in the hand. From a production stand point I prefer the Gatsby pen because it is a single barrel pen which I can turn very quickly as opposed to a dual barrel pen like the Cigar pen. Please, Subscribe! It's Free!
