/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Deceased father in law had an old cast iron pan that he had burned the handle off of from too much oven use. Thing is probably a century old. I dunno. Set aside some wood from a pear tree I cut down in the yard. Planned to turn it down into a nice replacement. No lathe. Used a miter saw to cut it down into a block. Then a bench grinder to round it out. Managed to drill through it somewhat straight. Now my wife's heirloom pan has a handle again. And I like the loom of it despite how totally wrong it was.
