Hello all. Sorry for the newby question.
I just bought an Easy Pen Turner from CSUSA.

90 bucks is kind of expensive, but I am committed to get the best tools and equipment I can afford, one step at a time, of course. I also have a set of Benjamin Best rough, parting and skew tools. My question is if these tools can be used to turn metals. My guess is that soft metals like aluminum or brass can be done. If so, how hard is on the edge of the tool the turning of these metals?
