Pop a bottle for this!

I made my first corkscrew yesterday! It wasn't much different from pen turning. It's a gift for a friend I'm visiting in January.

Nice job! What material did you use?

Thanks! I used Tru-Stone - Honey Jasper! It was my first time working with a blank like that. It turned very nicely, but didn't want to square. I ended up placing it on the lathe pen vise and sanding it after I realized sanding by hand was going a bit too slow!
