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, go for the PBT1 with its 16mm trimming head. For bigger pen kits, pick the PBTK04 or PBTK05 with their 25mm heads. Mount the tool in a drill chuck or in the Rotur ‘Deluxe’ or ‘Universal’ Pen Mandrel. Before turning and assembling your pen, make sure to trim the pen blanks. This will prevent gaps in the finished pen. When making cuts, let the sharp edge of the tool do the work for a smooth and accurate finish. 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. If you notice the cutting edge getting dull over time, it might be time to replace the tool for continued high - quality results.
