Thanks to slackbladder, who i met for the first time today, and gratefully showed me his turning and other pieces of fantastic work he also gave me some different wood for a handle.

So I've had a little whittle etc on some laburnum which had 3 different colour in.

Next stage is to cut in half and start shaping it to my hand, then drill the holes for the nuts and inlay for the blade to sit in. Once im happy with this ill start on the walnut and other interesting pieces slackbladder gave me.

Many thanks

Really enjoying this thread as making one myself. Trying to find some Gucci fixings rather than taking the red ones out of my old silky. Have you found any?

[Dan Earp]

Ive got the straight silky and its little bro (yellow one) and was thinking of using them till i found some bud lol

 

I am how ever looking on the net to find some wooden ones. If not try and make some 😥 haha
