duckkisser Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 been thinking of making my own resin pens I found this site that gives some decent instructions thought I would share the love with the rest of the community. http://www.proserpinewoodturners.com/MakingResinPens.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozwald Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 The way I've seen it done is using PVC tubes & you plug up the bottom with a cork. If you wedge a piece of a latex/vinyl glove between the cork & tube it's all reusable. You could also make a lazy susan style rack to hold the tubes as the resin cures up. Motorize it & you've got a centrifuge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckkisser Posted November 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 wouldn't they stick to the pvc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozwald Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Nope. Just take a dowel that just fits inside the PVC, put it up against the non corked end (w/o removing the cork), give the other end of the dowel a few light taps with a mallet & you're golden.
