Pen Turning

Getting Started with Pen Turning Using Pen Kits

When you begin woodworking, a whole world of projects opens up to you. If you’ve ever wanted to make writing pens, learn the art of pen turning using pen kits from Rockler. Our selection ranges from starter pen turning kits to blanks and hardware pieces. Starting your foray into pen turning with high end pen kits ensures you have all of the needed parts and an appropriate blank.

Shopping for Pen Kits

Our pen kits range from complete starter kits to kits that provide the mechanical essentials. Our selection includes themed pen kits, such as those for football or firearms enthusiasts, patriotic pen themes, or jeweled pens. Kits including only mechanical parts require a separate blank, the small piece of wood or other material that the pen turner shaves and whittles into a barrel shape to form the pen’s body.

Although Rockler typically carries wood and woodworking products, we also offer pen blanks in resin, mallee burl, and inlace acrylester. Our wood blanks include hard-to-find woods, such as ebony and zebrawood.

Quality Pen Parts & Pen Hardware

Perhaps you’ve grown as a woodworker and no longer require high end pen kits to guide your projects. Choose from our many wood blanks or try a material new to you, such as our hybrid resin and acrylic blanks. Instead of pen kits, you can also choose from a range of hardware and pen storage solutions including:

• Pen bushings
• Pen tubes
• Ink refills
• pen boxes
• pencil boxes
