Using the Rotur Pen Blank Trimming Tool is easy. First, choose the right tool for your pen size. If you're working on a 7mm pen, use the PBT1. For bigger pen kits, go for the PBTK04 or PBTK05. Mount the tool in a drill chuck or the Rotur ‘Deluxe’ or ‘Universal’ Pen Mandrel. Before you start turning and assembling your pen, trim the pen blanks. Make sure to hold the pen blank steady and guide the tool smoothly to get a precise cut. As for maintenance, keep the tool clean after each use. You can wipe it with a dry cloth. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid using it on extremely hard materials that could damage the sharp cutting edge. With proper use and care, this tool will serve you well for a long time.
