I just finished reading a guys request to borrow a hole punch. I wanted to tell him to buy a small piece of steel pipe with and inside diameter of 1/2" and grind an edge on the homemade tool. It made me think of other tools I have made to get a job done.

Here is a hammer handle rebuild that just took a little thinking and some old leather soaked in water then fitted on the shaft with a little glue to keep it tight. I was able to adjust the big fat handle on the original to a smaller handle that fits my hand. The cause of the repair is a long story but it wasn't possible to get Estwing to do the work. So..
Might be something useful to someone.
