and in this episode I make a custom wooden handle for a broken utensil and
welcome back to moore approved I'm James and in this episode I'm going to show
you how to give new life to an old kitchen tool so if you have a favorite
kitchen knife or something along those lines and the handles breaking off you
can actually just go ahead finish breaking that handle off and then most
of the time the rivets that hold these things together can be separated and
then reused so let's take a look
now I think this turned out absolutely great I just used a regular lacquer a
really thin coat to finish this off you could also use a salad bowl finish oil
or like a butcher's black oil something along those lines if you're worried
about this being toxic personally it doesn't affect me nor bother me in any
way shape or form because the handle of my spatula should never come in contact
with food to mount it together I just use CA glue for a lot of it and then to
do the final join together I used a wood glue I probably should've used a
polyurethane so if you do have like a gorilla glue or a polyurethane glue
I recommend that or you could use a two-part epoxy and that thing will never
come apart and because I do like it so much I may actually just break off
handles from everything else that came in my culinary kit and then replace it
with this wood because I think it absolutely looks fantastic and it's very
retro and funky if you like this project give me a thumbs up if you did give me a
thumbs down if you didn't if you have any questions or concerns or pointers or
tips that I didn't think about please leave them down below in the comment box
