A couple of weeks ago I posted a picture of a stove operating tool I made for our new wood stove. Well you live and learn, the ebony lip cracked and fell off after a couple of weeks of use, and it no longer fit the door right, I was never thrilled with the overall style of it anyway, I had turned it one day with no forethought put into it. I turned a new one this morning after planning it out a little better and am much happier with the way this one came out....for reference the old one is here... http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthre...ects&highlight= the new one I made today is below, cocobolo and african blackwood.
