Are you completely colorblind? Do you have no problem wearing brown plaid pants with an orange silk shirt and a purple & yellow striped black tie? Do the kids make fun of your bright green Prius with blue racing stripes when you drop your children off at school? If so this PIF is for YOU! This would be great for anyone that wants to practice setting a knot without the worry of ruining a handle worth having.
The lowdown: When I'm pouring blanks I always have a little leftover resin. I don't like to waste it because this stuff is expensive, so I pour the extra into a mold and when it gets big enough I turn it for practice. Normally I throw the resulting work away but I thought somebody out there just might have poor enough taste to actually want this. This handle was skew practice for me, in particular using the skew chisel with my left hand to work on my ambidexterity with lathe tools.
RULES
1. CONUS only
2. Must have at least 1 quality post this year
3. Must have no sense of fashion or color coordination
4. Must not mind being the butt of brush jokes by your fellow B&Bers
This is for the handle only! I wasn't about to disgrace a knot for life by making it coexist with this monstrosity. I don't need that kind of bad karma, life is rough enough for me.
To join just say I'm in. If you find this handle revolting feel free to post your thoughts and don't be kind. I could use a good laugh.
