Step 1: What Do You Need

The awesome free palette wood and an old file

Step 2: Get Your Wood Straight

Plane down the pallet wood straight so you can have a nice glue joint!

Step 3: Glue and Clampsp

Make sure you use a nice amount of glue and a good amount of clamps so the wood won't split.

Step 4: Cleaning the File

I used a grinder to clear all the file edges. Then used a water sand paper to sharpen all the edges.

Step 5: Plaine Again

Plained the blank so it your be square again !

Step 6: Cut!

I cutes 2 equal sizes to make a square blank for the handle

Step 7: OMG PLAINE AGAIN !!!

Yap plaine both to the same thickenness !

Step 8: Glue It "one Last Time"

I glue again . But with reverse so it would give a diferent look to the tool!

Step 9: Cuting the Blank

I dicided how long i wanted the handle and cut it to size !

Step 10: Turning

I turned the handle to a shape that i like and feel confortabale with !

Step 11: A Piece of Pipe "yummi"

I cuted a piece o Inox steel pipe to use as a piece to prevent the wood from crackle when you add the tool tip !

Step 12: Drill Drill a Hole

A hole to the tool tip . I tried to drill as straight as possible... a hole for the tip in the video did´nt loock that straight damit. the eye meter failed me !!!!

Note: normaly all my megurments are all by eyemeter.
