Using the Rotur Pen Blank Trimming Tool is easy. First, select the right size tool for your pen. If you're working on a 7mm pen, go for the PBT1 with its 16mm trimming head. For larger pen kits, choose the PBTK04 or PBTK05. Then, mount the tool in a drill chuck or in the Rotur ‘Deluxe’ or ‘Universal’ Pen Mandrel. Before turning and assembling your pen, use the sharp cutting edge of the tool to trim the pen blanks. This will prevent gaps from appearing in the finished pen. As for maintenance, keep the tool clean after each use. Wipe off any debris or shavings. Since it's made of high - quality heat - treated steel, it's durable, but avoid using it on extremely hard materials that could damage the cutting edge. Store it in a dry place to prevent rusting. With proper use and care, this tool will serve you well in making beautiful, professional - looking pens.
