I have been practicing turning before I actually start making anything. My question concerns using end grain blanks for pen turning. Is there any know problems turning pens in this way? I am concerned about the wood possible splitting after the wood ages. They may also be other issues that I am unaware of, if so I would appreciate any advice.
I did turn one sample with Bocote, both long and end grain and the end grain turning was much nicer looking (better figure) than the long grain. Guess that's the reason for the question. Thanks.
