That drawing is over 2 years old Ed - you need to stop procrastinating and start building!

Mayhem,
It's not procrastination, it's too many projects in the hopper.
I love drawing up projects in CAD so I have a ton of them drawn up and I can easily loose track of a project. I started a spreadsheet to list the projects and prioritize them but I don't necessarily follow it like it's cast in stone.

How would you do the curve on the handle?

Wong,
I would do an angle cut and then round the points with files and sandpaper. It's just a visual feature so it doesn't need to match the drawing exactly.
