Yesterday I was eager to turn some lychee that I received from Chris (Kalai). Man is that stuff hard as nails! I knew I was in trouble during the drilling, and then worse off during the pen milling stage - my least favorite part of turning, by the way. Then I had to sharpen my tools several times just to get the darn blanks turned!
The results are worth it, though because the coloring is awesome and it finishes so well. I haven't assembled the pen yet, but will post a pic later.
