Popular Post treeslayer 3376 Posted February 15 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 15 ok, so a quick and easy one page build, @Coop and @Bmac had asked how they were built so here goes. here's the pattern i use you can see about 11" long glue up the blanks and trace the side profile and cut on the band saw then trace and cut the top profile the rest is just a belt and disc sander after cutting some of the waste off on the bandsaw, over to the oscillating spindle sander then on to my ROS clamped in my vise upside down for final finishing, a little hand sanding to finer grits then a couple of coats of mineral oil and done, really easy and quick project that make great gifts and any highly figured wood scraps work great for the handle because its just bandsaw and sanders so no chip out to worry about, they can also be made out of a solid block if you want, the width on these is 1 3/4" but that can vary to suit the woos you have. any questions and comments are welcome as usual, thanks for looking 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Coop 7599 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Those are really neat Dave! Thanks for sharing. If the cryogenic hardening that my band saw blade gets tonight doesn’t affect it, I will try some of these! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
curlyoak 817 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 I like the way they look. And I like the laminations with figure. Is this a kitchen tool? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dave, I didn’t get this many ohhh’s and ahhh’s when I bought her a new car last year. Folks, it’s hard to believe but they look prettier in person than the picture shows! Thanks Jan and Dave! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coop 7599 Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Dave, hold my hand just a little longer! Is the longer piece 3/4” thick? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably closer to 7/8” Coop, thanks for the compliment, I do like to build them, I should have sent you the patterns I use with them but I’ve seen your talent and I’m sure you can figure it out, great gifts, quick build, not much wood all a plus in my book, glad Sharon likes them ! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
