That does look really nice!! What kind of dye did you use? I tried the "standard" black RIT dye and it didn't take that well... I had planned to try their "Dyemore" line since it's meant for polyester but I didn't see black as a color choice.

Old smelly hammer scales! The used popsicle sticks are supposed to be slated for the FK2 so there’s the big distinction

They appear to be from fudgesicles.

Looks like that would be a little easier than dipping in hot Rit dye. Does it rub off on your hands at all?

Boy Tony those are looking good. I am assuming you are using stabilized wood on those with some sort of a finish to bring out the inner beauty of the wood.

The two on the right are Koa, stabilized for sure. The rest are ironwood and no need (nor can it be stabilized). These are all very much rough, only shaped on a 36 grit belt. About the same coarseness as your average broom-finish sidewalk! Long way to go...

Nice to see that you don’t cut any corners, just like what they are made for.

The finished work. Tony almost seems like he knows what he's doing

Dare I say a little thunder and lightning while pointing to these instead of my underwhelming muscles?

 

[Big DJ]

Beautiful job.

 

[Daverous]

He does great work!
