X cut bamboo Streamline

[woodyturner]

I wanted to make up this wood on a Jn Gents but I had just 1 drill bit missing and yes it was the 10mm I needed for the smaller barrel so I have ended up with a slimline pen
As stated it is made with X cut bamboo which is a bit of a so n so to turn very sharp chisels needed and fine cuts from the beginning to the end finished with 3 coats of sanding sealer and a lot of Libron woodturners stick enjoy because I did
All comments welcome

You've certainly hit the ground running!

That's a lovely peice, no idea about the difficulty of the wood but if you find it hard then it must be.

Much nicer than a sausage pen as well!
