Inlaid fly rod handle being shaped on the lathe. Wood types used include ebony, amboyna and birds-eye maple. Made entirely with hand tools, except for the lathe shown here. Finally got round to turning this handle down before departing on another fishing trip. Made the mistake of making the handle a little too busy. Also the trim inlays are too thick -- they should have been about 1/16 inch thick. Oh well, next time.....

Prototype "spiral" inlay being turned on the lathe. Similar to the "double helix" design except that this one spirals asymetrically around the blank. Photo shows the other side of the blank with spiral going to the left. If the inlay is extended lengthwise, it becomes a "Butterfly". Interestingly if the blank is rotated the "butterfly" flaps its wings!

Prototype of a new handle inlay, "Spiral", being turned on the lathe. Similar to the earlier Double Helix design except that this one spirals asymetrically around the blank. Photo shows one side of blank with spiral going to the right. If the "Spiral" inlay is extended lengthwise it becomes a "Butterfly".
