Wrong. You can make a pen with nothing but a drill press and a pen mandrel. You don't even need a lathe. Table saws, band saws, and drill presses are not needed either, as long as you have a lathe.

Lathe, sharpener, table saw, band saw, drill press, turning tools, looks like a few thousand dollars before you can even get a pen made.
