Pen Press

If you have ever tried to assemble a pen without some sort of press or jig, then you know how difficult it can be. Keeping the pieces and parts together and in line can be a chore all on its own. This pen press eliminates those typical headaches when assembling pens. From the tip to the caps and most everything in between, this press will help you produce wonderful looking and properly working pens each and every time you use it.

Pressing Pen Parts Has Never Been Easier!

Press Pen Tips

The UHMW stop has a counter sunk hole drilled in the center to comfortably accept most any pen tip. Once aligned, pressing the pen tip is quick, smooth and easy.

Press Clips and Caps

Using the dowel to hole the pen barrel in place, pressing the clip and the cap on at the same time is a breeze.

Press Pen Mechanisms

When you need to press your pen mechanism into the bottom pen barrel, you need to be sure you press it into the proper depth and no further. The pen press makes achieving the perfect touch easy once you get the hang of it!

Smooth, Easy Operation...

This pen press is simplistic in design but functions exactly as it was meant to do. When pressing your pens, you don't want any sort of sudden or jerky movements. Our pen press provides you with an easy way of assembling your pens. The press operates very smoothly and allows you to place précised amounts of pressure on you pen parts as needed. This come in especially handy when pressing the pen mechanism into place. The mechanism can only go in so far and unlike the tip, cap and clip, there is no physical stopping point. All there is, is a groove around the mechanism tube. The press allows you to slowly press the mechanism right into place without pushing it in past the mark.

Included dowels to Keep Barrel Upright

Two wooden dowels are included. The dowels fit right into the predrilled hole on the UHMW pressure stop. Each dowel will protrude outward from the stop in order to hold the barrel in a horizontal position. This is a big help when pressing the cap and clip into the barrel.

Lets make the perfect pen...

While we all want to make the perfect pen to give to someone or to have in our family as a keepsake, sometimes our tools just don't quite do the trick. The Pen Press is an absolute pen turning necessity that every wood turner should have. It not only helps assemble your pens, but it does it in a manner designed to be delicate with your pens. This pen press will exert up to and about 30 pounds of pressure which is more than enough to press properly turned and aligned pens. If you pen is not properly aligned, we recommend making any necessary adjustments to make it align properly before using the pen press.
