The best sealing stopper on the market; SS-9000 with 4 o-rings and not much taper allowing 2 o-rings to make contact with the inside of the bottle. See picture comparing tapered stopper with the 9000 stopper in the bottle. The 9000 fit a much larger selection of bottles: wine, whiskey, Balsamic vinegar, etc. These stoppers stand up so your artwork can be on display when it is not being used in a bottle. If it doesn’t stand, it will end up in the utensil drawer!
If you are not familiar with the mandrel choices, click here to see an in-depth comparison to help make your selection.
The bottoming tap cuts threads right to the bottom of the hole so you don’t experience the stopper not threading all the way in: always drill about 1/4″ deeper than you need.
Two stub drill bits: the 5/16″ works with native wood. The 11/32″ will make threading in acrylic, resin and tight-grain exotic wood easier. The stub bits don’t wander when they hit hard grain like the longer bits will.
The draw bar is a safety feature: it only works with the #2MT-A and #2MT-B Morse taper mandrels. Thread it in the back of the mandrel, insert it through the headstock spindle and tighten the fender washer up against the center of the hand wheel. (see pictures)
Lathes Specifications: here is a list of lathe spindle sizes and Morse taper if you are not sure.
If you have any questions, email ruthniles@gmail.com or call 717-486-5232. I like to talk with my customers and I have 30 years experience turning and I can relate to every problem.

I’m a fairly new turner and just starting to work wit epoxy resin. I wanted to try my hand at some bottle stoppers. Based on all the positive reviews on FB turning groups I decided to go with Ruth Niles. I purchased the kit with 10 stoppers and the mandrel. I could not have been more pleased with the quality of the product and the customer service involved in selection and shipping.
I will soon be making my second purchase of stoppers as well as some other items. I encourage everyone to support Ruth as you will not be disappointed.

I recently purchased the Superior Stopper Kit. Everything in it was of the highest quality and made turning stoppers a breeze. the drill bit and tap prepare the wood for the mandrel and from there, the workpiece is secure and ready for your imagination. The mandrel is sized so that you turn to its diameter which is the correct measurement for the stoppers in the kit. The Stoppers are solid and made exceptionally well. They add weight and presence to the stops so you know you have something of value in your hand. Well done Ruth. I will be back for more.

Feedback on the products I’ve purchased:
Shipping is fast
Packaging is great
The machine work on the stoppers and bottle openers is superb. I think providing the caps on the threads is a great touch.
Pricing is very fair
