I did not have such a wide piece of beech available, so the handles are fixed with large 10 mm dowels through the block (four in total) and (modern) glue. I first drilled the hole for the dowel through the main block with a drill press. Then using this hole as a guide, I drilled a few centimetres into the side handles. This way, the dowels are invisible from the outside.<br /><br />MarijnMarijnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05839707199186597043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4996432166551690323.post-67272217856044055422012-12-27T21:29:09.279+01:002012-12-27T21:29:09.279+01:00Nice one!
