I’ve had this Jenks & Cattell stainless steel hand fork for 40 years and it’s as good as ever, except that the wooden handle has pretty much had it. The rectangular-section shank is of a piece with the working end and the cap is copper by the look of it. Any thoughts on ways to repair or replace the handle that don’t involve gaffer-tape?

#introduction

I am a #StructuralEngineer (California PE) turned #SoftwareDeveloper living in Brooklyn, NY.

I love #bikes, #biketouring, #xbiking, #bikepacking, etc.

I have spent the last three years learning #handtool #woodworking in order to build #chairs

I also #sew my own #clothes.

After spending a few weeks lurking, it’s time for an #introduction.

I’m Christian, based in southwestern #Germany after fleeing the Brexit fallout in the #UK. A #biologist by training, I spent a long time with #neurobiology research. Today I work for two small companies in the #fluorescence #microscopy and #motioncontrol fields.

I have been #sailing #dinghies for over three decades, with a partcular passion for highperformance #skiffs (still a beginner at sailing faster than the wind blows). Over a #boatbuilding project (a #Farr37 is still work in progress) I discovered #handtool #woodworking and now dabble in furniture making.

The meltdown of the Birdsite reminded me how much I miss #usenet - maybe Mastodon will be a good replacement?

Adventures in evening #handtool #woodworking continue. My dutch tool chest is slowly talking form. Every step is an opportunity to practice various techniques. Mortise tenon dovetail dado rabbet molding, experimenting with Milk paint and chalk paint. I have enjoyed this project but, for lack of time, I've been dragging this project for too long. Almost done. Almost done...

@amerikate @AaronNail @theexplorographer Rex Krueger on YouTube has some great videos for getting started with #HandTool #woodwork cheaply with minimal tools
