With this well-made hardware, you can create an attractive, durable pen. High-quality platings yield a crisply detailed, uniform surface and a precise fit between parts, combining ease of assembly with trouble-free function.

Compact yet comfortable, the Sierra half-twist pen has a single straight barrel that is easy to turn. The tapered black grip and finial contrast with the plated surfaces, giving it a sleek, refined appearance. The pen operates with a 1/2-turn mechanism and takes a Parker-style refill.

The starter set consists of two pen kits in a gold finish, bushings and the required drill bit. Mandrel or shaft sold separately.

Blanks not included. The minimum blank size is 3/4" × 2 1/4". (19 x 55mm)
