This is part 9 in a 9 part series: Building a cane

  1. Intro / Roughing the handle
...
  1. Rounding the shafts
  2. Hole for the peg, shaping begins

This morning’s progress was marking the position for the hole in the tenon,




Then offsetting it by 1mm or so towards the shoulder



And drilling it out (not shown)

Once that was done, it was time to start shaping the handle. This is rasp, knife, and spokeshave work. I also had to take a break to fill some of the open grain with thin CA glue.



May you have the day you deserve!
