On this particular piece I worked on it about two hours. (As compared to that little bamboo cup I worked on that you saw, that took me about 8 hours! So you can see the differences between the two burners just with that.) It did get hot, but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle. It's definitely more comfortable using this new pen as compared to the other pen you tried. Holding it feels more natural like holding a regular pen. I'm not sure what type of wood this little tiki is made of, but when I watched Buzzy burning that big tiki made from palm it seemed to go very smoothly. Then again, he's such a great artist he makes everything look easy. :)
