Rockler Pens & Bushing List

[Sammy-2016]

Hello all,
I don't get to come here often so please forgive my in-frequent visits
Is like to get my pen kits at the local Rockler store but their pen part numbers, descriptions and Bushing numbers are Rockler's own. Is there a list referencing their pens compared to the IAP Bushing & Tubes list?
Thank you all
Sammy
(edited):
Can I use the IAP list to find Rockler (or PSI) bushings & Tubes?
Thanks again
Sammy

Sammy; Rockler appears to be a Berea re-seller. Many re-sellers "relabel" their pens to make it appear pens are unique to them, but the truth is there are only 2, 3? pen manufacturers. Some sellers create their own designs in co-ordination with the manufacturers.

Check out the Tubes N' Bushings app available on Ios and Android.

Hope this helps.

Hello all,
I am always looking for Rockler pen/pencil kits parts because I live very close to the Rockler store in San Antonio, Texas.
I have more questions about kits, bushings, tubes and refills. I have several old pen/pencil kits and most of them have missing parts. I hope you can help. Please look at the attached pictures. At this time I have a couple of the kits in the pictures and am looking for:
Rockler's version of Bushing #146597 & the pencil mechanism.
Thank you all again

Sammy; There are **MANY** versions and variants of the Sierra pen and pencil kits. Some are interchangeable and some are not. The Woodcraft "Wall St II" is a standard Sierra kit.

Measure the tube diameter and length and search for a match on the Tubes n' Bushings app if all the measurements are very close to what you measure. It is likely that the parts are interchangeable. This is NOT guaranteed, but likely true.

Look at the instructions for your kits. Archive.org has the "Wayback machine" (anyone get the reference??) is an internet archive that can retrieve web pages that have been deleted or no longer available. You can point at a particular website / date and see the files there. Also if this helps you, be sure to send a few dollars their way.

It is annoying that companies rename their pen kits to make them appear unique. BUT THEY ARE NOT! Maybe we should teach them that a pipe has TWO ENDS!
