Project Information
I'm building a box and needed a handle to tote it and remembered a YouTube video by who I can't remember that I made a template from.
Jim Jakosh triggered my memory of this technique when he made a few cool handles for his router and lathe chuck boxes.
This handle/pull is made from mahogany and white oak.
Here are some of the process photos.

After cutting out the shape of the inside and top of the handle I draw the shape for the sides on the top that has to be removed.

If your going make a few of these it's a good idea to make a template of the size you'll need. This one was for some doors I made for cabinet stands for my large power tools.

It's finished with 5 coats of wipe-on ploy sanded with Mirka 360X, 1500X, and 2500X
sanding pads and Minwax Paste Finishing Wax.
Thanks for visiting.
