Bubinga tool handle

I like it. It looks comfortable for use and that bubinga has such a beautiful grain.

Nice, and you are right scraps are great for stuff like this. What did you use to mount the rasp into the handle? Epoxy?

@Michael Curtis yes i used epoxy and it had a sort of square wedge shape at the end so i kind of wedged it in the hole

Already improving I see. Great job on this Adam. Immediate gratification was the reason I started turning too, but after awhile the need for that diminishes when you realize that the quality of the stuff you want to turn takes a little longer. It happens automatically so don’t worry about it.

Woodworker_Collins thanks for the tip, I made 3 this past weekend using the same method. Those small handles they offer do not fit my 12 year olds hands never mind mine.

stefang, I agree. In days gone by I would zip through a project and get it done. These days I plan it out, do research, ask a few questions and then finally get started. Time goes by, all the details get attended to and eventually it gets done. Where did all these complications come in???? (laughing)

Great job on the beautifully shaped handle. Like the wood and the finish.
