Tools and materials I propose:
In this video I make a small axe out of an old table saw blade. I also turned a mahogany handle for it, on the lathe.
I begun by cutting the shape of the axe using my grinder.
I then used my stick welder to weld the blade with a piece of metal pipe.
I then cleaned the welds with my small grinder and my rotary tool.
After polishing the blade a little bit, I created the bevel on my bench grinder. I did the final sharpening on my Tormek T8.
I then turned the handle out of a piece of mahogany.
I then connected the blade with the handle. I used a small wedge to keep things really tight.
I finished the handle with mineral oil.
My little axe was ready at this point. You can certainly use it for small jobs but I think I will keep it as a decorative piece.
But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
