Great App

The only thing: I wish I could enlarge. Bad eye sight.

Useful reference across suppliers

Great to have access to the all the set documents in one place.

To the previous reviewer… turn the iPad physically to Portrait view, and the docs will appear fine.

Great on iPhone, not so much on iPad

I realy like the functionalities and practicality of this app. Unfortunately, I can only view the instructions when using my iPhone, on my 2 different iPads, all I get are blank pages. A real bummer since my iPad is my main shop device.

Response from developer

Sorry about the delay, but we are all volunteers and life sometimes gets in the way. A new app & database update is available as of 30 Jun 2022.

Needs updating

It’s been a while since the app data base has been updated, so it is missing the newer kits. As well as the default screen doesn’t let you scroll up to get access to the sort feature, so the only way to search the kits is to type and search by name or to scroll.

Great app

For what it does, but the database hasn’t been updated in ages. A lot of the newer pen kits are not in it, so it limits its usefulness.

Ton of info, no search feature

There is a lot of great information here. Whoever compiled this deserves a tip of the cap.
One real drawback, however, is that the pen names are organized in about 8 or 10 different alphabetical sets. There's no way that I have found to sort or search. So you scroll, and scroll, and scroll until you find the pen you need.
I'm sure I'll eventually figure out where my favorite pens are located in this almost endless list, but in the meantime, some frustration.
Despite my complaints, it's absolutely worth $.99.

Thanks for your review. There are actually a number of ways to sort and search the data. You can reorder the suppliers, create your own list of favorite kits, sort the list by a number of different criteria, and search for kits using most any alphanumeric string or combination of strings. The app includes a Users Guide that explains all these features that you can view in the app or print or email it. Please send us an email to appfeedback@penturners.org and we will be happy to answer any questions you might have.

Great app. A tremendous amount of work and the app is only .99 cents? I would pay $9.99.

A Compendium of Information for Penturners

What a massive amount of information. If you turn pens sooner or later you'll need this app. It will help you unscramble that mixed set of kits on your bench or help you design that one of a kind pen.

Must have app for pen turners

This app is a great resource for penturners. It is comprehensive, easy to use, and has a well done drill bit size converter. It has an excellent search function. What a timesaver!

Awesome app!

If you turn pens, you need this app. Data for most kits at your finger tips. Just today, needed tube lengths for a Majestic--BushnTubes saved me from a trip in from the shop and firing up the computer. I highly recommend this.

Very helpful

Very useful app for use when making custom pens. Let's you know sizes, diameters and lengths of different components from different manufacturers. Search function is incredibly helpful, too.
