Pen mandrels
The Rotur Deluxe Woodturning Compression Pen Mandrel holds pen blanks on the lathe in compression between the lathe headstock and tailstock, instead of the more traditional but less satisfactory way of screwing a nut up against the bushings and supporting the mandrel shaft with a live centre. The compression method means there is no tension on the mandrel shaft itself and therefore the pen mandrel is not prone to distortion or vibration, either of which can lead to "out of round" pens.
