2 Lee Valley projects done

>Let me say the LV spokeshave kit is one great project. I like it so much i may just order another one. The wood is bubinga with 2 coats of Garrett Hacks spar varnish,blo,mineral sprits mix. Just take your time making one and the results are what you see in the pic.

My orginal LV plane hammer handle broke some time back, and Rob Lee offered to replace it with no questions asked, just "send me your address" One has got to love the service LV gives. But this was special gift and i wanted the bubinga handle.

>Works great,i did put a little more angle and bevel on the brass wear strip but only because my old shave has that shape.

And yes did use it on the hammer,but before i got the handles shaped......i really like them both and no they are not for sale.

Dennis,who just got told he can not sleep with the shave and hammer tonight.............lmao
