Question for all the pen turners here
« on: September 17, 2011, 12:00:37 AM »
So I have started to turn a few pens and it is a lot of fun. The only thing I don't like is the Cross style guts. I really prefer a gel pen. So the question I have is what is a good reasonably priced pen kit with a Parker style or similar gel insert . Thanks in advance for your help.

I like the Mesa Pen Kit from www.woodturningz.com.

Mesa, vertex, polaris, atlas are all single tube pen kits. Super easy and look good also. I perfer the parker cartridges also. My wife is very particular in her pens. She only wants the gel ink.

Woodturningz is a great place to get kits from. Thats is where I get most of mine.
