The pen alone was amazing, but to see that you used a homemade lathe and probably homemade lathe tools placed this craftsmanship in a much higher level. Very fine job.

Thank you for giving of yourself to a veteran...I believe he will treasure the gift not of money, but of the heart and spirit. You are one extraordinarily talented craftsman Moy, but even more, a man with a heart of gold. Bless you sir!! Love your tools...absolutely creative. Whoever said "necessity is the mother of invention" had you in mind. 👍🍺 Cheers!

Excellent work. I started watching pen making artists. I like the way you have made all your tools out of plywood. Your lathe . I'd like to try some day. Great work , thx for sharing.

Dang, Moy. Awesome work. I've been in shops that had tens of thousands of dollars worth of tools in them and watched people do a dreadful job on the simplest of projects. I'm looking at your project here thinking to myself "damn, dudes just loves it and had to find a way." Props to you and yours and everything your about. Lovely work!
@pegwinn4 жыл бұрын
I like the pen. But, I love the homebuilt tools. I can do pens. I can do other small projects. And I finally made a jig that works. But making shop made tools has eluded me. Very well done Sir.

Moy, the pen looks great, I am very impressed how you made your tools, it's easy to spend money, you have done the same and better with your 'tools', and methods. Thank you for taking your time to show us your pen process.

From other videos, it seems that not drilling through in one pass is the way to prevent the blank from splitting, esp. if using plastic.
