Not much to start with but it is the same material that I used for the http://straightrazorpalace.com/workshop/49907-here
This time it will be stacked horizontally.

Will post more after all pieces are glued together.

Okay so I moved some pictures around over on PB but here it is again.
Glue them up

All glued together.

Blocked and seat drilled for the knot

What shape? Shape 1?

Shape 2?

Shape 3?

Shape 4?

I'd go with a hybrid of two and three. Take the bulby top thing from three and spread the bottom out like you do on 2. That'd make a nice handle IMO

2 all day long. It's similar to the shape of my "dowel rod, drill press, and file" brush I have in the works.

So after two trial attempts at final shape number 4, this is what I came up with.

I love how everyones workshop looks the same. If it aint messy it aint a workshop.

The finish just went on! It will be fully cured in three days.

That is turning out beautiful and very unique looking. A definite keeper!! Congrats and great work.

**heirkb** · 03-10-2010, 11:59 PM

Wow! That finish really makes the handle.
