Popular Post oldhudson Posted June 18, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Here’s a simple project that is pretty handy. It protects fingers when retrieving hot items from a toaster. Any hardwood such as maple, cherry or oak should work. I did try to find straight grained wood. Cut the stock into ¾” x 7/8” x 6 ¼” pieces. Drill a 5/8” hole in the 7/8” side 1 ¼” from one end. Then cut out the excess stock with a scroll saw, jig saw or band saw. Sand to remove saw marks and soften the edges. Be sure to bevel the tips. I added a second partial hole to epoxy a rare earth magnet into the stock. I finished them with a couple coats of mineral oil and did some wet sanding with 240g paper. meflick, Sam777, frankorona and 7 others 8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
