I mentioned elsewhere that I'm a complete newb to pen making but I've been given a quantity of heritage oak from the headstocks of the bells of St.Paul's Cathedral. However the cross section of each bit of oak means that I can only produce a blank which is 11mm square, which might pose a problem. I've been advised that the 'Slimline' kits from Axminster using a 7mm drill would be suitable but it would appear from some reading on the forum that they're a bit 'dire', whereas the Beaufort kits appear to be far superior.
Is there a Beaufort kit available for a beginner that would suit the 11mm blanks that I can produce or am I destined to make an unending array of 'Slimline' pens? - Rob
