An essential step for making a quality pen project is to square the end of your pen blanks and pen tubes prior to final pen kit assembly. Our system includes cutting shafts that will fit into a drill chuck or lathe chuck – the shaft will clean the glue from the tubes and act as a pilot for the 3/4" squaring cutter. This complete system includes: • 7mm, 8mm, 3/8", and 10mm pilot shafts • 3/4" squaring cutter , allen wrench and instructions • Sleeve adapter for #PKPARK-PCL and #PKMONT-PCL pencil kits

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 A Must-have for Pen Makers
Reviewer: Grant Barlow (Galena, IL US, )

When I first started turning pens, I would square off the barrels by holding the blank (with inserted tube) against my miter gauge and push it into my disk sander until the excess wood was removed. Then I discovered Penn State's Universal Squaring Jig. I was now squaring the blanks correctly, but it only really works with 7mm blanks. I now use the barrel trimmer set. For pens with tubes larger than supplied in the set, I turn adapters that slide over the 7mm trimmer and fit inside the larger tube. Sharpening the trimmer: I found the best way to dress the cutting edge is with a diamond file. I touch-up the edge every 8 to 10 blanks.
