I came up with an idea for making custom turned pens using standard pen turning parts (mostly) and techniques.

I presented the idea to Rockler, they liked it, we signed a contract, and after a year, they are now available! The new catalog features them on the back cover.

It is all very exciting!

I did the same thing 3 years ago and ordered several 7mm tubes for the drawers and cabinets.

She likes them and that is all I am concerned about.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification.  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Great idea, and I'm sure it will get a lot of interest. Especially for custom cabinetmakers who want to match the pulls to the cabinet.
Still Learning,

I forgot to add that PSI has had the kits for over a year.

Nice Ralph, I saw that in the catelogue and thought it was a pretty good idea. Well done.


Arlin, all I'm seeing are drawer pulls in your link. Very different from the handles Ralph and Rockler are offering.

Thanks. That is correct. The knob kits are to go with the pull kits which, as far as Rockler and I were able to find out, are new.
