My first preference is Arizona Silhoulette they offer pen kits at comparable prices and with each order you make, they include a free bonus. Usually the free bonus is of some exotic pen blank that you may not even try because of its cost. They ship by USPS at the least possible cost and are exceptionally fast in the order turnaround time. Other web-merchant are as followed : Penn State Industries,WoodturningZ.com,Steebar Pen Kits, Craft Supplies U.S.A., Augums Pen Works, Hut Products, and many others on the internet. I have never been disappointed with any of the above pen kit suppliers.

I like Craft Supplies USA. Find them at woodturnerscatalog.com. They have some really nice high end pen kits. For economy I go to Penn State and buy their fun line.

Word of warning, each manufacturer makes their own kits and they are similar to another manufacturer’s but often the bushings are slightly different. If you buy a similar kit from another manufacturer make sure the bushings are the same.

I’ll second the recommendation for Craft Supplies USA. Since my first purchase a couple years back, I won’t consider anyone else. Quality is exceptional, service is great.
