Customer Reviews
I wish I had this book 10 years ago when I first started turning pens. This book gives precise written and pictorial instruction in making the basic and modified slimline pens. There are lots of project plans to modify the basic slimline kit into different designs using a variety of materials. Don also gives you a lot of tips on pen making that will make your turning a lot easier. A must book for the beginner and more advanced turners who are looking to improve their pen techniques.
