Hi, Robert That's a lovely handle you made the the no. 7 panel saw. I have restored a lot of saws myself but have not made any handles from scratch. Can you point me to your thread where you posted the steps you went through? I think you hit on a great key in making the grip a little beefier than on the original no. 7 handles. I have found that occasionally we run into variant handles on D8 saws that have that kind of thickness, which I find more comfortable.
