I'm very new to penturning and am still trying to learn the ins and outs. I've been turning duck calls for about a year and know the importance of stabilizing softer woods for that application. I was wondering if it is necessary for most pen uses? Obviously something that is extremely soft or punky will need to be stabilized, but is it a common practice for all softer woods? For example, would I need to stabilize a very solid piece of cedar heartwood? What is the risk with not stabilizing?
Thanks for any help and discussion!
