Custom Pens of wood, acrylic, stone, water buffalo horn and deer antler ( INFO & SALES )
Hello, my name is David Terry and I am a wood worker who enjoy's making custom pens on my wood lathe for business and hobby. I also make custom handles for fixed blade knives, but I will have to make another lens for that.
I will be sharing my knowlege of Custom Pen making with you, along with photos of my work and the option to link to my website to purchase some of these custom pens I have made.
I am going to be producing an e-book in the near future and perhaps even a video explaining and showing how to make some of my favorite custom pens step by step. I will have some special offers and freebies from time to time, so keep checking back with me to see whats new and exciting around here.
Here is the link to one of my other blogs and a link to my Custom Pens website. Blog - http://custompens.blogini.com Website - http://www.pensbydave.com
Thanks for reading. The Pen Man :-) David Terry.
Custom Pens by Dave
Fetching RSS feed... please stand byDavid Terry's Custom Pens
Hello everyone.In this first entry, I would like to share some brand names I trust in the line of wood working that I am in. For midi or mini lathe machines, I would go with wilson for the more affordable quality models, Delta for the middle of the road and a bit more costly models and Steel City for the higher end and sometimes way more costly models.
All you need for Pen making lathe tools are three tools. a medium short handle gouge, a medium short handle parting tool and a medium short handle skew. Most brands will do if they are a high speed steel, but I would recommend PinnAcle brand.
Now, shop accessories is another thing. Brands dont apply so much here, just as long as your happy with the results you get from them, If your happy, stick with them. You will need pen wax,( I like HUTT brand ), sand paper ranging from rough to very fine grits depending on the material being used to make your pen. You will need a pen press, a special pen making vise for your drill press,(Yes, you need a drill press). You will need a band saw. ( I would go with Delta on these two because they make pretty good drill presses and band saws for the lower price you can usualy get them for. A Work Sharp brand sharpener is a good idea to keep your lathe gouge, parting tool and skew sharp,(Dont worry, an idiot could use this machine). Hey, Im just trying to keep it real for ya. There are alot more accessories to be mentioned, but if you've gotten this far, the rest you will find out when you go to start buying your pen making kits and materials and such.
Well, cheers to your success in whatever you do with or with out this information I have given you. I will say this,... I realy enjoy making custom pens and if you enjoy working with a lathe, then you will also. The possibilities are endless when you have full control over the shape and style of the pen, not to mention the almost endless choice of materials to use, like wood, acrylic, stone, water buffalo horn, deer antler and the list goes on and on........
Thanks for reading. The Pen Man :-) David Terry.

- Very informative lens.
Making a website is really not that tough, and top of all, you can create a website or more website for free.
Building a website is a extremely individual skill and is different with each client.
It is more about revealing your business to new probable clients and generating new sales.
