Started turning a couple more pens last night and got to wondering this. How many pens are you guys getting out of a set of bushings? I am mainly talking about the 7mm slimline style pens. It seems that no matter how carefull I am I only get 3-4 out of a set of bushings and then they get distorted just enough that they don't match up when the pen is put together. I usually have a couple extra set anyway so I know they aren't that much when buying them but I just got to wondering as I was turning last night what everyone else averaged on a set.
