Just a round to it project - RonB1957 - 08-23-2021

Well, I have had this little fella sitting around on my various benches all year getting moved here and there out of the way. Of course I still manage to ding and scratch it, but that's ok. It was one of those defective handles I decided to play with a bit. The mortise originally went out of whack so I decided rather than throwing it away I would just piddle a bit. So out came the epoxy and saw dust mix and I re-cut the slot/ mortise. Originally wanted something to match my triple loop half back. So here it is unfinished no less. 12", 16ppi triple loop dovetail with a 32* hang. Got a little silly with the saw plate. And yes, I drew up a carcass saw and sash version as well. Just because. :
Smile Some day I may even actually make a couple.

lt looks great despite the initial problems.

Always good to get a reminder that it isn't just us hacks who screw things up and then shuffle them around from bench to bench collecting dust and nicks. Just need a little more work on that salvaging them into gorgeous final products....
