Pen Drilling Ideas

I don't have any pictures, but I cut a 2x4 1/2 way through, then ripped it the length wise to the cross cut (made and "L" shape), made a slot in the long leg of the "L" so a bolt can move up and down the length.. use a wing nut with lock washer to tighten.. I an put any size blank in there and drill it... biggest problem I have is my little HF desktop DP doesn't have enough quill travel to reach the bottom of most pen blanks.. wind up having to stop the DP, ship up under the blank and finish drilling.
