Mandrel Saver comes complete with slimline bushes and 7mm drill bit
No more threads to deal with
No more bent shafts due to the tail stock pressure against the mandrel
Experienced pen turners understand the disadvantages of the traditional pen mandrel; overtime the mandrel can slowly work its way out of round and introduce a wobble into your turning. You can replace the mandrel with a new one; but now you can get it right the first time! This set includes a 7mm drill bit; 3 bushings; the Mandrel Saver Tail stock Center PLUS a basic mandrel (no threads or knurled nut) that works great with your Mandrel Saver. Here's a complete mandrel system for just a bit more than the cost of a new mandrel.
