Title: Hopefully Worth the Effort
Post by: Burnsie on November 23, 2025, 11:18:28 pm
The curve/swoop in this handle was making tillering almost impossible, it created a big hump right out of the fade. I decided to do some surgery.  It's pretty straight now, we'll see if it turns into a bow.

That... is interesting. I an very curious how it will turn out. I haven't seen that approach before. Points for uniqueness.

Nice job, I see no reason that won't work as long as you keep it from bending in the handle. Nice approach. :)

I did the same with a half moon cut out. It worked well. You can also take propeller out that way also.
