  1. Off Topic Coffee Lounge
    Not being a woodworker, I'm looking for someone who can replace the handles on my aging Chicago Cutlery kitchen knives. I believe the originals are Walnut. How can I reach someone in LumberJocks who might be interested in doing this for me, for a reasonable amount?
  2. Chisel Handles

    I turned these Chisel Handles to create a uniform look and to replace my old plastic and broken wood handled Chisels. Most of these belonged to my Dad. I cleaned up the steel, sharpened and I use them almost daily. The handles are made from Ash from the wood burning pile :)
  3. Cabinet Handles

    Cut myself some handles for the shop cabinet I posted earlier, I guess should have taken a pic with them installed, but I'm sure you can imagine, ha. Cut them out of some leftover cherry, made them both different just to get some extra practice on my bandsaw. I should have taken pic of the...
  4. Froe - leaf spring and red oak

    A friend made three froes from leaf springs. In exchange for making three handles, I got one of them. Took a piece of inch-and-a-half square red oak, cut it into roughly 17" pieces, planed them square and then to octagons, then used a spokeshave to taper the ends to fit the froes. Two quick...

  7. Router Sled / Jig For Cutting Handles In Cutting Board

    I made this simple little Router Sled / Jig to cut handles in a cutting board I made for some friends for Christmas. I didn't take a lot of time in the design/adjustability of it, but it got the job done! Watch the video here
  8. Curly maple and mahogany bench vise handles

    Needed some new handles for my bench vises. Turned these on the lathe out of some "scrap" I had on hand. The curly maple ends are from a very small cut-off from the legs of my coffee table. And the mahogany came form a dowel I had laying around. One of the curly maple ends has some of the...

  10. Turning Saw

    Hand made Turning saw based on the Gramercy tools kit which I've had for absolutely ages and finally decided to make. The kit I bought comprised of the handles, pins and three blades. The wood used is quarter-sawn European beech. I believe Gramercy make the handles from American hickory...
  11. Sycamore handled RIP saw

    I bought a $2 Rustie of a saw. checked the Medallion. Some company called WS & M Co. Hmmm, not a Disston. It had some of the biggest, non-pruning saw, teeth i have ever seen. I COULD refurbish it into a user of a rip saw, except for the old handle. In another time, someone had...
  12. 6 Pack Carriers

    I made one of these around Christmas for my mom's boyfriend, who is a homebrewer and consummate beer man. It seemed like the perfect gift and he uses it quite often. Recently, he brought it to a family gathering at my mom's and I ended up getting orders for four more of them as a result. (The...

    A few facegrain service boards with brass handles.
  14. another handle...

    I picked up this little broad axe head at the big Texas flea market in Canton for $3. I had this chunk of hickory thieved from the firewood pile already roughed out. I finished shaping it and fitted it to the head then rubbed a goodly amount of blo into it. The head's weight makes this one...
  15. Jewelry Chest

    Recently found plans for this in a Woodworker's Journal from Nov/Dec 1987. Great project, semi complex, awesome project for my advanced students. Carcass is MDF that I skinned in a vacuum press with Mahogany. Drawer bodies/fronts are solid wood. Loved the handle design/simplicity, and I learned...
  16. Ice Cream Scoops from Dunnage.

    I made a couple of scoops for Christmas presents and posted them to Pinterest To my (pleasant) surprise it generated a request for more. I have the process down to 30 minutes from grabbing a handle blank to ready to glue the scoop on. Pinterest a pretty nice site, it lets you price items...

  18. Shopmade Heavy Duty Handle

    As shown on these photos, I like to make my own large pulls or handles according to my needs from 10'' long 2'' X 3'' spruce stud scraps - one of them is screwed on my planer base support while two others are at each end of my cutoffs bin. They are easy and straight forward to make, and very...
  19. Pistachio Handles

    I had the need for a couple of handles and I had just enough pistachio wood to make them out of. One is a replacement for the short one on my core drill that I use to drill out a bowl and set the depth. The other one is for my new mini-bedan (5/32" wide). This one could have been a little longer...
  20. Big board, could carve a turkey or two

    This is the largest end grain cutting board I've built to date, a commissioned piece through my Etsy store. It was a fun build with final dimensions at 24.5"x18.5"x1.9" and tipping the scale around 30 lb. This was my first time installing hardware handles on a board - normally I just route out...
