Instructions

1. Select your desired wood or acrylic blank and drill a hole in one end. The hole needs to be the same size as the width of the shaft on the cutlery blank. For precise drilling, use your lathe with the handle blank held in a chuck using pin jaws or pen blank jaws.

2. Place the handle blank between centres on your lathe, the end with the hole needs to be placed into the live centre. For a precise fit use a live centre with a 60 degree cone such as our GPW Live Centre.

3. Turn the desired handle shape, depending on the cutlery blank a recess may also need to be turned.

4. Place the bolster or cover on to the cutlery blank.

5. Place glue inside the handle, we recommend using CA glue or a 2 part epoxy.

6. Insert the cutlery blank in to the handle and let the glue dry.

7. You are now finished, pour yourself a drink and admire your work.
