I've turned one pen with it so far, and like it overall. I wasn't sure about the tailstock part of it, since it acts like a mandrel saver. I've tried both the PSI and CSUSA mandrel savers, and neither one worked for me. Too much slipping. While I did get some slipping with the Ultra-Shear, it wasn't as bad. I chalked it up to my aggressive turning. I tightened it a bit, backed off with the chisel, and it was fine. Granted, it was Kirinite, which turns easier than some acrylics, but still. I like it for now, but we'll see what happens with the second pen.
