Non wood pikie

A friend gave me a few pieces of urethane plank to try turning so I turned a giant pikie. (Gonna be around 6ozs) It has about the same weight as AYC and floats. The only drawback I have seen is that it is messy to turn (it shoots a fine ribbon of material right back at you) and is kind of hard on the tools. Once a chisel starts to get dull it chatters. I sanded it and sealed it with sand and seal, let it dry and primed it.
