How to Make Your Own Tool Handles

EPISODE #39
Lots of descent hand tools I have came with cheap disappointing handles. In this episode we look at how to easily transform those tools by making your own customized handles. Those ratty handled tools will suddenly become your personalized favorites, shaped for your hands to do your finest work. And they look pretty nice hanging in the tool cabinet too!

Thanks for the great show Tom. I can't seem to make the "live" version, but the first thing I do on Fridays is to watch you on CZcams!

Thanks Mark, I’m so glad you enjoy them. That one was particularly fun to have the immediate gratification of a small lathe project. 🙂

Tom enjoyed the wood turning tool handle episode on "Shop Nigh Live". I have a small Jet lathe like the one you have. I need to start using it, this episode has helped me to get going, thanks Tom.

Thanks Steve, that’s awesome, you sure can do a lot on a lathe like that in a short time 👍
