I decided to try a segmented pen using brass for the first time. I thought Home Depot might carry some brass plate. Turns out they didn't, but i did notice they had brass push plates for doors. So I picked up one of those, cut some 1" squares on my band saw and went to work. After glueing up the blank, I started to turn it, but quickly started to feel that it was harder to work than it should be. I think it might be too thick at 0.052". Is this too thick to be attempting to turn?
