Finally someone who doesn't spend 5 minutes or more waffling but gets on with the job; so refreshing; thank you and very well done video.

This is an older video but excellent. I am new to turning and plan to use your technique. I read through the other comments, but did not see anyone address my question, so here I go. You show how you mount the handle in the lathe for a round shank. How do you mount it for the flat shanks? I’m guessing the live center on the tail stock won’t work for the flat shanks.

Very cool. I'll give it a try.

Excellent teaching vid once again. You have a gift, please keep sharing? I've noticed that you have hardly any videos now, why's that? I could watch them all day. Cheers, Sean

Great idea for the tools with flat tangs. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

Great video! Thanks!

I know this is a 4 yr old video but was exactly what I was looking for. Clear and to the point, I will gather material today and follow your instructions...................thanks

Exceptionally well done video! Making your own handles is simply fun and it gives you pride each time you use it.

One of the best handle-making videos I've seen!

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you for sharing! Much simpler than what I was thinking about doing.

Nice work. It's great to see more people making woodturning videos. Looking forward to seeing more. I've got to make a couple handles as well. -Todd

Impressive... Very Impressive. On point with the whole process, and left me with no questions. You nailed it.

Perfect video, super clear and concise instructions, very well paced and shot. I've considered using set screws like this and you've confirmed that it's a great feature. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thanks for sharing your handle design and set screw addition. I'll be making some of these.

Awesome! Just what I needed! I have some gouges that need longer handles on them, now I know how to make them!

Thank you for the video. Your presentation was clear and the camera work was well done. I've always glued my tools into wooden tool handles. I'll have to give using set screws a try.

Nice video! Easy to understand. Looking forward to more of your work.

Great video. I am in the process of making my own handles, so this video is a great tutorial! Sub added.

Very nice. Thank you for sharing your technique Scott....!

Sweet handle design. Thanks for sharing! Great video! 👌🏼

Great quality tool as well as video. very professional looking video, looking forward to more.

Outstanding attention to detail! Never saw set screws on turning tools.

Awesome video dude! Nice explanations and great visuals. Can't wait to see the next one!

Very nice video. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

Nice work with great attention to detail. Thanks.

Nice handle. Making the handles makes them pretty unique!

Bravo - great video. well explained and concise.

Great video and love the tool handles.

Man great job on the video!! I shared it on my website too!

Excellent method!

I really enjoy your video pal, since I prefer to make my own handles for my tools and chisels, you give me couple good tips about chisel handles,so go make some more useful videos like this, cheers

Awesome video. I made some tool handles myself, but I like how you made the optional to remove or change the tools.

Nice Video!! Thanks for sharing!

Nice approach

Perfection! Thank you!

Nice work

Great video/great job

Nice work!

Gonna use that set screw idea

Great video. One new subscriber.

I enjoyed the video! Very clear, nice voice over explaining the process. I am currious to know what finish you put on the handle? I look forward to seeing more videos from you!

nice work thanks for sharing, more videos please :)

Found the snowman video, now I'm binging the rest. So far so good. Have you tried using thin CA glue to reinforce the wood threads on the handles? Figure these are old enough you may have perfected a technique by now. Then again there may not be a lot of wear and tear to the threads if you don't swap out tools very often.

nice method

Nice video. Great instructional detail. Where do you get your handle-less tools?

I'm a beginner turner, about a year or so. Been a carpenter/contractor/architect all my life and I can build just about anything. I know wood inside and out.... but steel is new to me. I appreciate your list of tool providers along with the type of steel they use. Is there anyway you could rate either the provider or the steel type. I want to purchase some good tools, tired of the chinese ...although they got me started. I figure if you can turn something with a chinese tool you should be able to make some great progress with good tools. I was looking at D-way, not familiar with Thompson. Would really appreciate a lesson in quality suppliers and what type of steel would be the best, second best and so on. Subscribed to your channel.... looking forward to seeing what you do. Thanks Scott

What suggestions do you have for selecting the wood for the handles?

When can I buy this On Amazon! Great job Scott

ya...im going to like your channel.

How do you use your center on the rectangular hole for the skew?

Hod did you keep the live center in the middle of the rectangular mortise?

1/4" or M6 set screws are plenty strong enough-

That was a great video, but I kept waiting for you to explain WHY you use an alternative approach. What is the advantage? Still, excellent presentation. Very pro.

That's a fantastic explanation. I humbly suggest you open future videos with this kind of overview before you get into the details. Still, totally enjoyed the video!

Hi I am curious if you have made handles for 5/8" dia bowl gouges and how the handles are holding up over time?

Great video. Why do you bother with the set screws? Don’t you just make a dedicated handle for each tool?

LOVELY

NICE

Oh Yeah, please more videos.

That oughta work! :-)

Very cool! I'll use this as inspiration in making my own handles. What brand of tools do you have?

Thanks for answering. Should've read the description before asking, take care

How did you turn with headstock without a chuck? One end of the handle had a hole. Did you just put the headstock through the hole?

@@segantiwoodworking so the square hole on the tail end is ok with the cone tail, and stays true? Great. Thanks

Your approach to making videos produces a fine product. As to the content of this one, I don't have the tapping tool or the pipe cutter or the router table, however if I was to do several handles it would be worthwhile to buy them. One advantage of your design is that the tool can be removed for sharpening which I favor. Have you taken the tool out many times? I wonder how the threading on the pipe wall or the wood holds up to frequent removal and reinsertion of the tool tang. I'm guessing you leave the handle on for your sharpening. Thanks again for a helpful video.

I suppose you could use a threaded insert and then a machine screw could be used inside the insert: www.google.ca/search?q=Threaded+Inserts&rlz=1C1SKPL_enCA404&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjd3aTNydXWAhVE1oMKHdJwCXkQ_AUICigB&biw=1920&bih=949

Hi Scott. I just stumbled across you channel. Nice work. I enjoyed the video. How about a few constructive suggestions. Make yourself a hardwood or aluminum blank about the size of your tool tang ( the rectangular feature in your handle blank ). Lock it in a vice and slide your new handle onto it when you drill the set screw holes. It will help with the orientation of the holes and keep the spin factor out of the equation. A thicker copper collar would also give you more metal based thread. I invite you to check out my channel if you have a minute. Take care, watch those fingers and keep up the good work.

Hey Scott. Thanks for the reply. My suggestion was not to put the handle in the vise, but a piece of aluminum or hardwood the same size as the rectangular pocket in your handle where the tool would go. Then slide your handle onto that and drill away. You would have parallel, level and rotational all at the same time. It would probably work better if you had a bunch of parts and wanted them all the same. Forgive me, I always think of fixtures first. Nice result you got. thumbs up on this one. Take care.

Joe - as in a mandrel? Such as a pen turner might use perhaps. Why not use a vise and a drill press with a center finder?

Tapping with a drill?! Nooooooooo!!!!!!
