Your cart is empty.Remember when you could turn your own pens? the WEN wood Lathe pen-turning MT1 Mandrel allows users to take on small and intricate Woodturning projects. The self-centering Mandrel attaches easily to an MT1 tail and headstock with the shaft running through the hollow live center of the pen’s body. This Mandrel features five bushings, a 7mm diameter shaft, and a tapered Morse to maximize compatibility. The Universal design fits with the majority of MT1 wood lathes on the market, but was designed specifically for the WEN 3420 7 by 12 inch wood Lathe. Remember when you could easily adjust the length and tightness of your pen-turning Mandrel? remember WEN.

Great value for the price and it worked perfect with the Wen lathe. Perfect if you're just starting out turning wood on a lathe.

If you have a mini lathe it may have a Morse taper #1. B you can also get a Morse taper adapter so you can use a #2 in a #1 which decreases the length a bit. If you want too turn pens you need this part.

Excellent design centered on the mandral lenght being adjustable to match any job.

I am just getting into pen making and didn't want to drop a ton of cash at first. Just in case I shifted to something else. A mandrel is a must have and this one checked all the boxes. When I received it I noticed there were only 4 bushings, not 5 as described. I then measured the shaft and it is 1/4 inch. Technically, this was a correct description. But it also says 7mm, which it is not. 1/4 is closer to 6mm. Not a huge deal, unless you drill out your blank at 7mm. This creates some play while turning. After a couple of practice pieces I noticed they were all off center, by 1mm. So now I just drill them with a 1/4 bit instead of a 7mm. Problem solved. Otherwise, this mandrel does as needed an does it well. Knowing this, I would still buy it again.
