Shawn, that handle would cost $$$$$. Very fancy. The use of the copper wire and black Starbond CA was a neat idea. Thanks for another turning video. Cheers, Tom
Just got a model 45 Powermatic, rebuilding the lathe now. Excited to get some tools and make handles and all sorts of things. Thanks for the inspiration
Beautiful work! I admire your artistry and ingenuity. Didn't quite see how you attached the running end of the copper twist when you got back to the hole???
Fine practical artistry! The copper and black is striking and the embellishing looks so professional. You may be the family production turner, but your dad's artistry must've trickled down a bit. :) Today I finished my second custom handle with a OneWay/Hosaluk quick change ferrule. The new bed extension meant I was able to drill it deep enough to hold a double ended gouge and to include a nice deep ballast chamber the the rear. Just haven't decided which tool is it's primary steel, yet. I enjoy this format of video, fwiw.
Working Bos'darc (We call it Hedge around here) can be quite challenging. I really enjoy it. You have done a fantastic job of working it for this handle. Knowing its challenges, I appreciate what you have done here. I have turned a lot of it over the years and have had to throw a lot of it away and start over. I just cannot complement you enough on this one.
Hey Shawn: I like what you did in making this handle for your new gouge. Yeah, the Carter & Sons aluminum handle would be nice. But it ain’t yours. It’s their design. The Bodark handle is completely yours; your design, your flare & personality. That makes it a great handle because it is YOU and something to be very proud in making!!! Your Gouge handle gave me inspiration for turning some handles for homemade tools I am making. Not everything you buy is better than what you make on your own. In this instance your handle is far superior and classy.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Glad to see you back to doing woodworking videos. I've got a Carter/ Sons Skew it has an Aluminum handle. It feels heavy to me, except when I weigh it, it's a few grams more than my 2" bowl gouge. Yet I feel a lot of vibration. I still use it a lot because it stays good and sharp. Very nice handle, looks like it's got some bling. Bois d'Arc (Bodark) and Copper?
There was another channel with lots of "silent" videos but.... nobody saw them. This video got more views in the first hour here than on the other channel in a year.
leave, if you use a triangle file and make a groove down them it'll turn them into a cutting edge so you end up threading the wood. I make the tenon about 2/3 down the thread. I think I covered this in the teaching video on making handles. This wasn't a teacher.
@@wortheffort I remember that, but it just looked like they were removed at the 2:18 point, but I figured they were still there as you had to struggle a little to get it on. 😉
LOL 9:14 -- Every lathe operator tells everyone not to do it becasue it is dangerous. Every lathe operator then does it. ;) I do it myself. Nice handle. I really need some nice tools. My carbides do way too much tearout.
That pop when the steel comes out of the handle is super satisfying!
Just finished making 14 chisel handles ,bugger ,got to start over again ,fantastic job ! ! ! ,thank your knowledge and sharing .
This is a work of art ! Outstanding!!
The channel name alone is genius!
Handle looks great 👍
Wow that was a fun ride Shawn. Fantastic job. 👍. Thanks for the wire tip.
Beautiful Shaun, I love the texturing you did with the burning. Neat little project 😁👍👏
WOW!!!! Stunning handle!
Very cool handle. I like the copper braid inlay and the textured grip. Well done. Thanks for sharing
Absolutely the coolest and classiest!!
Wow, there's a whole lot going on there with that handle. Super cool!
I fully expected to see a bottle of single malt at the very end with the caption “Aged 18 years”… beautiful work either way! 👏
Bourbon here, no scotch funkiness. Still Austin all the way.
@@wortheffort Nice choice! Well “aged at least 2 years then…” Cheers!!

Very very nice n I love the way osage ages!
It's a work of art! Thanks for sharing your talents. Awesome.
Now that is a nice piece!

That makes me want to buy a bunch of gouges without handles. Love it! 👍🏻👍🏻

Really enjoyed that. Thank you.

Looks great. I am a little surprised you didn’t turn the hex fitting round and flush with the wood.

Excellent video, I wish I had been a bit more receptive in school woodworking lessons !

Bois d'Arc (Bodark) and Copper?
Excellente, the technique with the copper wire 👍
Nice work dude! Hope I can make it to the point where I am that confident with a skew…
WOW! Very cool project.👍
I love all your work
Beautiful!
Nice ,all of them.
Great video and great work, Shawn! Your work is so inspiring ;^)
WHERE THE HELL YOU BEEN BRO!? AIN'T SEEN YA IN YEARS LOL, FEELS LIKE IT
My god ....you didn't utter a word 😀. Was that hard for you? I still learned a lot from your production (as always) though, thankyou!
There was another channel with lots of "silent" videos but.... nobody saw them. This video got more views in the first hour here than on the other channel in a year.
Very nice. If it doesn't violate the Turner's Code, might consider using a file on the copper?
Nice work. Thought at end you were going to put your face there and say aged 21 years.
Beautiful
Awesome 👌
Shawn, at the 1:50 point in the video, USE A PUSH STICK, they don’t bleed as much and hurt a lot less in case of an OOPS! 👍
Super awesome, was that epoxy or CA glue?
Both
I WANT THAT!
At 2:18, it looks like you remove the threads from the copper fitting, if so, how? At 2:37 they seem to be back. Do you remove or leave them?
leave, if you use a triangle file and make a groove down them it'll turn them into a cutting edge so you end up threading the wood. I make the tenon about 2/3 down the thread.

Only CA glue to connect the steel? Or was it epoxy?
from experience CA is more than enough but 5 min epoxy works just as well. Remember the tenon had a channel on it.
Super!
love!
The lighting is Fluorescent ?
WOW!!!!!
WOW!
BADASS
nice
👍
Ähhh... Didn't we see that a few months ago? 😮
See description.
Scrap wrench..
Dude, great job. Now the handle is worth more than the tool🤣🤣🗜🗜
