Patent number: 11154941Abstract: A pen milling device and a method for milling pen blanks therewith. The device has a body selectively engageable with a rotating apparatus. A replaceable cutter is engaged with the body such that a cutting edge thereof extends outwardly beyond the body's end surface. The cutter has multiple cutting edges and may be reoriented relative to the body if a presented cutting edge becomes dull or damaged. A reamer extending outwardly from the body includes at least one flute. As the device is rotated, the cutter removes material from a pen blank and the reamer removes dried adhesive from a bore of a pen tube secured within a hole defined in the pen blank The device removes all of the pen material extending between an end of the pen blank and an associated end of the pen tube.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2019Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: Woodpeckers, LLCInventors: Jeffery E.
