Hi
I am a novice to pen turning but i like the the look of this press, what is that handle thing called i might have a go at making one myself.

It's a convenience really. Any method that gets the job done will do, but a pen press makes it quicker and easier than a viceI just use a vice. Is there any advantage to having a dedicated pen press?
A swivel chair? I know you're pretty innovative when it comes to jigs and gadgets, but using a swivel chairl as a pen press? - I've gotta see that!I love mine being eye height adjacent to the lathe (a bearing press) I use my swivel chair at the lathe. Like seeing what others use and I too enjoy making and modifying.
