    Pen press problems

    I have a press, not sure of the make, that is good quality but I have a problem. The white plastic part with the hole in has over time become worn. The hole has enlarged and the pen tip (or in my case pointed part of a light pull kit) gets damaged on the nut in the bottom. Any suggestions as to...

    ID for this pen kit

    Starting a Business

    Bit of a long story but I will try to keep it short(ish). I bought a signmaking franchise many years ago which didn't last long due to me having to charge very high prices, after the franchise dumped me I carried on because I still had to pay the equipment & other costs so just kept doing the...

    London Plane Bowl part 2
