Been so busy recently had little shop time, but managed to make it to the lathe this evening and turned a wee Headwind! My first go at this pen. Unfortunately I didn’t have the right size drill (11/32) so had to go in slightly under and then ream out which was a pain 🥴
The wood is unknown as I found it whilst wandering around my workplace 😁

Yes I can understand why, has a relatively thin tube as well so can take a lot of meat which gives lots of options blank-wise I reckon?
