Can a small chunk of wood make a big impression? Automaton making - the crank handle.

Can a proper crank handle increase the pleasure in owning an automaton? Here I argue that it can and show how I go about making crank handles.
I design and make automata and other wooden artworks. Details can be found on my website www.lowbot.co.uk where I also sell plans and automata.

I'm completely with you on this, it's the one part of the automata that you touch (unless you're like me and want to poke and prod everything!) so it has to not just look good but also feel good. Love the arrow showing direction by the way!

Thanks for commenting.
Amazing work, the replication is a masterpiece in itself. And the attention to detail is very much a essential part. Wonderful automatons. Love the videos.

Where did you get your reamer from? I have a very small set for clock repair, but cannot seem to find a handheld reamer for Wood.

Sorry I’ve had them a while so cannot remember where I got them. I bought hand reamers online though. I made my own handles on a 3d printer using downloaded files.
Philip, I'm loving your videos, but I found the music in this one pretty distracting. May I suggest that you decrease the volume or leave the music out entirely? You don't need it. The content stands on its own just fine.

Sorry about that. Still learning my way around using music. Thanks for watching despite this. Best regards, Philip
