Preparing the Blank:
• Cut 2 blanks to the length of the tubes and add 1/16" for squaring off.
• Drill 8mm holes lengthwise through the blanks.
• Spread glue over the tube(s), insert the blank with a twisting motion to spread the glue evenly inside.
• Center the tubes lengthwise inside the blanks.
• When the glue is dry, square the ends of the blanks. Use a 8mm barrel trimmer, or a universal pen blank squar-
ing jig with a power disc sander. Take the excess material down fl ush with the ends of the brass tube. (do not trim
beyond the length of the tube since this may interfere with operation of the mechanism and assembly). Use a barrel
trimmer to clean the inside of the tube.
