    Default Stylus pen kits?

    I tried searching this topic so forgive me if this is a repeat question, but are there any wood tuners doing pens with touch-screen styluses at the tip?
    If so, any pen kits with this option? It seems to me that with everyone owning a touchscreen phone/tablet computer these days, there could be interest in a nice pen whi h doubles as an iPad stylus.

    Hey There, Back again,

    Couple of Pics attached, I have Gold and Chrome sets and also got some Bobble stylus kits, they have a plug that goes into the Earphone jack on the phone when not in use, the Knight pictured here was drilled on my Woodlathe and not quite centred, so SWMBO claimed it, and is permanently attached to her I-Pad. the acrylic Stylus has a Streamline clip attached and is custom made to fit my Phone cover.

    The stylus tips come from Craft Supplies USA.

    Thanks Os and Hazza. Yes the ones HazzaB has made is what I was thinking of - normal pen at one end, and stylus at the other. So HazzaB, from what I understand you are using a pen kit and just replacing the tips with the stylus tips from Craft?

    Hey Bassman,

    Those pens I posted you need to drill out the end of the Cap for the stylus to go into. I use 1/4 inch tube for the stylus, so I would think that you could use the stylus end instead of the finial cap in the Streamline and Slim pens, I'll give that a go soon.

    I had to make a tapered collet type insert for the collet chuck on my metal lathe to hold the slippery little suckers, and save damaging the plating.
