Couple of Omegas in dyed X cut Coconut Palm / Red Palm

Very difficult to turn. But nice effect.

It’s actually blue, well supposed to be :funny:

Bloody evil to turn, spitting splinters at you the whole time. Lots of ca to hold it together even though they are stabbed, nasty stuff. Just finished Zeta and a Mistral.
Very light cuts, reckon a carbide would rip them to pieces.

I do love a challenge :winking:

That's a lovely pair Brad, and well worth all the problems turning them.
Unlike anything I have seen before, well other than the crappy pen you showed earlier

Oooooo, matron what a lovely pair you have there..:funny:

All looking good Brad, hope you get over the trauma of turning Wood soon tho.

I like the blue, green, blue, green. Can't make my mind up with that one but great effect.
