A few weeks back I had a request to re handle a mitersaw. I though it would be fun to document the process.
I choose a piece of quarter sawn walnut.
I glued on graph of the new handle, and drilled out some of the curved areas.
This gave me the opportunity to use my bowsaw and cut out the shape.
Now it's time smooth out the cuts and check for square.
Next, will be cutting for the blade and back, then the bolt holes. I'll share that a little later.
