New! Stainless Steel Ice Cream Scoop Hardware Kit Detail
- Stainless steel scoop and ferrule
- Add your own custom-turned wooden handle
- Kit includes complete instructions
Make your own deluxe dessert disher with this beautiful stainless steel scoop and ferrule. Get creative with a custom-turned wooden handle, then attach the hardware for the perfect finishing touch. Instructions for turning a handle and assembling the ice cream scoop are included.
In addition to this kit you will need the following:
Wood: Approximately 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" x 6" of a strong hardwood such as maple, cherry, walnut, oak, or yellow birch. Of the imported hardwoods bubinga, purpleheart, gongola alves and cocobolo make
wonderful handles.
Turning tools: Spindle roughing gouge, spindle/detail gouge,
parting tool and optional skew chisel. A pair of outside calipers with rounded edges on the measuring points is helpful in fitting the ferrule.
Drill bit: 3/8" brad point or regular twist bit.
Chucks: Depending on how you will hold and drill the piece, you may need a scroll-type chuck for your headstock and a Jacobs-style chuck for your tailstock.
Glue and finish: The tang can be glued into the handle with epoxy or a thick type of CA ("super glue"). The finish could be with a
drying type of oil such as pure tung oil or boiled linseed oil. An oil and varnish blend such as Rockler's Nordic Oil also looks great. For a film type of finish (for extra protection against moisture and a higher sheen finish) try a wiping type polyurethane or a gel varnish.
