Some projects
John in NM
A few projects in addition to my usual shop entertainment.
First is an axe handle made from a horrible piece of hickory for a friend from work. He wanted to use this piece because it came from some family property in Ohio, but I doubt it's going to survive much use.
Next is another axe and a hammer. I've had these handles kicking around a few years, waiting for spare time. Had to reshape the axe handle a lot to give it a more pleasing look and feel. A lot of manufacturers leave handles pretty chunky.
Also made a crate for the wife's fake christmas tree. We had to toss it's cardboard box since mice got into it last year. Even a crate is pretty fun when you have time to build a nice one.
I have some small wood boxes in the works, pics of those will come next week when they are done.
