Decorated tool handle
This is the first tool handle I turned, and I took the opportunity to try out two decorations techniques, copper wire embedding, and friction burning.
The wood is from a discarded table legs I found thrown to the curb in my neighborhood, and I believe it to be Santos mahogany, kindly identified by Freddie Hicks.
The handle was modeled on my spindle gouge handle, although this one is much nicer looking, and feel better too to grip.
It was fitted with a drill mandrel for boring a hole in projects while turning.
