I just need to vent to some people who will understand. I just had a really beautiful piece of snakewood that I was turning a classic fountain pen with, and it must of cracked or something. Half of the barrel just tore out, running the length of the barrel. My tools are sharp and I don't think I gouged it out or anything. I have had similar things happen when I make a mistake or work a little too aggressively or even when I don't glue something up properly but I just don't understand this one.
It's frustrating because the was one of the last pens to turn for inventory for a show this weekend.
Thanks for listening,
