I carved handles for the doors of a cabinet I'm making but am curious about the best way to attach them.
The handles have two connection points to the doors (middle - where the doors meet, and at their other ends, about 4 inches in to each door) and each connection is perhaps 3/8-1/2"" wide. Obviously, I should have thought of the attachment method from the beginning, but I was just enjoying learning how to use a spokeshave. If I need to toss these and make new handles, then I will.
What are some reasonable ways of attaching handles? I could likely just screw through from the inside, as long as I'm careful and use thin screws. Any better ideas?
Note: in the attached photo, the handles are still one piece. They will be cut in half in line with the doors (so equal handles on both sides).
