Knobs

After making the first part of the handle for the espressomachine, I wasn’t done yet. I also had to make knobs to go on the handles of the machine.

For the knobs I also made a template with a bolt in it. In the wood that was going to be the knobs I screwed a nut.

After that I made the template and placed the bolt in the wood. Now it was time to start turning.

A few photo’s during the turning process.

And the final result.

I had some wood left, so I made a matching pen for the customers, just a little present.

Luckily they send me photo’s of what their espresso machine looks like now with the wood handles and knobs. They are very happy with the result and let’s be honest. This looks a lot better then the previous plastic handles did.
