The Silver handle is a special one Doug made up for me cause of my hand it's holding a 3/4 U bowl gouge.

I will agree with Steve on this one. Your killing me. I do wish I had some of those in my shop. Maybe someday.

I suppose I should be glad I don't live anywhere close to Doug! An impressive lineup for sure!

Yeah, Harry, that is just what you needed to do - another trip to Doug's!!:rolleyes::D You might want to take a break and build another tool rack - that is quite a herd you have started!;)

I wonder if Doug has as many of Doug's tools?

Jealous is probably the best word to describe how I'm feeling right now!

Can you explain the shiny handle to me? I know Doug offers a handle to accept 3/4" tools so what is special about this one? And, what is with your hand?

I have nerve damage in my thumbs and Doug used a old handle he had to make it for me ,it's shorter then his original 3/4 handle and is weighted for me with my problem.

WOW, I never thought I'd say this to a guy, but, NICE RACK!

I too am glad I live nowhere near Doug.
