Playing with sticks

Beautiful handles! And, you got the wood from a firewood pile – that’s great!

I believe the copper thingies are called ferrules.

See, I knew if I called them thingies, someone would give me the correct name…and on the first comment, too. At least I knew what the sticks are called. -SST

my jaw dropped in disbelief!! From a stick???
Ok .. that’s it.. no more bonfires… I’m going to use every piece of firewood for building projects!!

These a SWEET.

Nice looking handles. I also use the copper ferrules on my tool handles. They seem to work great!

very nice looking handles and those copper end caps work great as ferrules, never thought of that. Great idea.

they’re actually called “Thingies” in the beginning but since everybody had a different idea of what “thingies” really were somebody named them inapropriately. I like the thingy thing. I use them all the time.

Oh, by-the-way, nice handles

Nice handles AND Thingies. A couple of recent posts on this Forum is beginning to make me really start studying firewood stacks – might have to start doing some “night recons” looking for project material :-))

Cool, I love the source of the wood!

Awesome and a cool custom design.

I just thought about using copper pipe, but copper thingies look like a better idea.

Nice handles.

Great idea. Think I might head to the hardware store tomorrow.

Cajunpen—this might be helpful.
