Great mandrel for turning wood to make ink pens. I bought two mandrels due to their high quality.

I purchased this mandrel to turn Christmas tree ornaments, I had no intention of turning pens, But with a slight modification, it served the purchase. Since I won't be turning pens, I can't truly rate it for it's intended purpose. I see no reason it wouldn't work as designed. Not being a pen turner or one wanting to learn, instructions should be included. There were none. This why I didn't give it five stars.

Have made a few pens using this mandrel and it works as expected. I use it with a mandrel saver instead of using the brass nut on the end but the nut would work fine too.

Just purchased this mandrel to find it was about 1/2 inch shorter than the mandrel I had from woodcraft that I needed to replace since I accidently glued the penblanks to the mandrel shaft. Upon arrival I was discouraged to find it was not long enough for the two penblanks, three bushings, and the threaded spacer nut.

Does the job! As a beginner, this is a great starter mandrel for pens.
