  1. Hi, Keep it fairly basic, split and shape (or cut and sand with a 4 1/2" 80 grit flap disc to the shape of your choosing). Leave the head end oversize. Put the handle in the airing cupboard for a few days, finish shaping where the handle fits the head, and fit. Now soak the all the timber in a 50/50 solution of turps and linseed oil for a minimum of 1 week. A handle made thus will last an awful long time.
