It may not be the best looking wood, but it turns easily and smells great. I made these pens for a niece and her husband. The kits are from PSI and Wordturningz and the thought was to make somewhat matching pens with some differences. The blanks turned as easily as anything I have turned in my brief pen-turning history. The Ca finish was not as easy. I needed to remove all Ca from the comfort after finding a speck of blue paper towel within the finish. Oh well, if it looks good at the end - that is what counts - not the effort needed. Kinda
