Some tools I made from scrap metal, all are aluminum,all handles are made fromsplitersfrom aleft over hammer handle , all have actual brass wedges to keep the handle in place.





Istill need to make a shovel,they take about 5 minutes or so to make the head part, 1-2 minutes for the handles, no special tools, just some files,drill,sandpaper and free time !
Oh the upper hammer I wont be using , I made the handle to large and to lazt to try to fix it

WOW! You ain't just whisl'len Dixi! That is beyond cool!

Thanks fo the pictures!

+1 on what Chief said!! That is great work...I have a new weekend project!!

I really could see paying for those,plus mine wont be like everyone elses,Ijust chucked the wood spliters in the cordless drill and went to town with sandpaper and files.

Nah , couple hours at most, Iwould perfer to made them from steel so they would rust naturally, if I can find some scrap steel I will remake them,1 pointer is to drill for the handle first then shape around that to your desired effect.

Joe You always have a new weekend project. LOL. I think i'm gonna gut my Pershing this weekend.

Hey Greg, was that a shot? LOL I am still at it with my Pershing too. Getting to the nitty gritty.
tao, I will be messing with a set of tools. I know I have some old hammer handles laying around.</p>

Handle material was from my boss's blue point hammer, that he finally decided to replace the old shortened handle with a new correct length, so I kept old handle, figuring Icould find a use for it some how somewhere, been kinda slow so he just let me do whatever as long as the jobs get done and out,at least the handles are "authentic", lol

Those look amazing!

Execllent looking tools!

Nice work, taoJ
