The Artemis kit is the perfect mix of American made Steel and a well engineered and thought out design. Kate and her crew at Bullseye Turning Supplies have nailed it, dead center. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at creating an authentic custom made pen, this kit is the official gateway to doing so. The Artemis kit (and the Apollo kit as well) allow you to dip your toes into the world of creating a bespoke pen, without commiting to acquiring expensive taps, dye's & tooling required to do so. The kit comes nicely packaged, with detailed instructions that are concise, well written and super easy to follow, including solutions to common mistakes. The fact that this kit is 100% made in the USA and supports USA jobs, well, that's reason enough to try it out. What are you waiting for? Buy one and you'll see what I mean!

Writes great, is great for the Eruropean style older pens as a replacement. Great price. Fast response and shipping. Would buy again.

Great pen kit, delivery was fast and accurate, looking forward to making more.

Awesome kits, bit of a challenge but absolutely phenomenal when you get it right. Had someone think it was a piece of dowel when I showed them.

I love the Artemis kit. It is a solid kit, and feels like a top quality pen in your hand. It always gets attention when I make one.

I built a jig for threading wood similar to a Baxter system. I needed a collet chuck for accurately holding small parts. This chuck has very little runout and works perfect for my application.

This blank is a nice solid and colorful piece of wood. I could make a pen holder, but I prefer to make it into a bottle opener handle. It looks just that good.

Has a customer picking up when I opened the box. She took one look at the blank and placed an order on the spot for that blank. I even told her it would be an up charge since the blank was for me. She didnt care and had to have it. Thanks for making them look so good right out of the box.

Good Quality and Fast Delivery. Thanks

Gorgeousness overload! This blank is absolutely beautiful and will make a fantastic diamond painting pen!

Incredible depth of color when turned!

Firstly and for me the most important is the service I received from these guys. Simply fantastic and everything arrived as ordered and even with the good old UK customs delay it was on time. The products are great and allow a great enhancement from standard pen kits that allow you to become much more bespoke. I love the simplicity of the design whilst still making a robust product. Keep it up guys. I am currently creating my 12th pen with their product.

What more can be said American made by people who know pens Turing. These will last many lifetimes.

This was my first time turning a kit of this nature. The instructions were clear cut.,very easy to understand. The material, some of the highest quality I’ve worked with. I will be coming back to this product with no hesitation.

Really fun pen kit, clear instructions, Kate was wonderful to work with. Would highly recommend!
