Funline Slimline Copper Twist Pen Kit

15 pens for reunion gifts

I built 15 of these pens in a group as gifts for a college group reunion. The fit and assembly was good but with minor difficulties (diameter variations due to plating?). I used locally obtained sugar maple wood, staining some pens darker to contrast with the copper plating and leaving others lighter colored. Most of my old friends thought I had bought the pens at first. When they learned that the pens were hand made, I was toasted as "The Craftsman". Of course by that time, they would have drunk to the day their laundry was ready but it was still nice.

good value

For the price this is great. The only problem I had was the hole at the bottom was to small to allow the ball point all the way out on 2 of the kits (out of 5 used so far) and had to be drilled out with a 5/64 bit. Transmission appears to the same as other, more costly, kits. Finish looks good and I have carried one in my pocket for several weeks as a test with no fading. Without the problem of the hole it would have been 5 stars.

Wouldn't be without it

I love the color and it makes fabulous pens.

Great bullet pen kit

This is a great kit to use when making a bullet pen.

I made 5 with cherry. I can't believe how inexpensive the pens were. Looks great
