  • I made a pen press using a Horizontal toggle clamp and some scrap material I had laying around the shop. The pen press works great and is a lot easier to use than a pistol grip clamp.
    Plans are available on my website: moyperezwoodshop.com/

    First... great to see a new video!
    Second...love to see a great new homemade jig!
    Third... I love the custom handle, it makes such a difference when you see plain cheap stuff on tools and then you spend a few minutes and make it so much better, it's why I love Woodworking! I just got my lathe and plan on making all sorts of new handles! In fact I think I will head to my shop right now!!!!

    I just thought I'd mention I bought the plans and made this press. Mine's not quite so pretty because it's made out of 18mm plywood, but it works great.
    I still need to turn a handle though, haven't done this yet and the little one on the clamp doesn't give enough leverage for fine control on tighter fits.

    That's an impressive pen press. Have you considered the possibility of getting it patented? It looks and functions a lot better than the ones that are currently available commercially. Just one man's opinion.😉

      +fiberinspector I heated the bolt and melted the HDPE. Once melted I folded the HDPE around the bolt. I have detailed video on how I did it, if interested ua-cam.com/video/rRwTTHVMWFw/v-deo.html
