Saddest axe in the world

[pullrich]

We're always posting pics of robust handsome axes but what about the sad urchins of the axe world?
Look at this pathetic specimen. As you can see someone took a broke hatchet and duct-taped it to an old table leg.

That is pretty sad. Today I hung a small double bit hatchet. The eye of the head is not so normal. Marbles decided to essentially drill 3 overlaping holes through the head. So, two grooves had to be routed out on each side. In frustration, I started beating the head onto the new handle, yes it cracked a bit.

Now, I have filled it will Truebond wood glue, and just got back from the hardware store with some Rescue Tape. Will it work? I hope so, once the glue has dried, I'll wrap the $hit out of it with this self fusing tape. It's supposed to hold 950 PSI tensile strenght. Time and use will tell.
Yes, this also might be a sad little hatchet.
