Sirocco in cross-cut Zebrano

[Graham_C]

Finally got around to turning a piece of the Zebrano - and I wanted to try one of the new Sirocco kits, here is the result. I was quite surprised at how hard the wood is, it made it more difficult to turn than anticipated. Finished with Melamine.

Zebrano needs a whole lot of filling on the cross it is so porous.I like the rugged look of your pen.

Nice job. I cross cut some Wenge for a pen but even just turning it into a cylinder was a chore.

Great looking pen Graham. I love the shape you've put on the barrel - it flows well with the components.
