Defiance Handle Lathe, 1920 and 2016
I ran across this ad for a Defiance copy lathe in a 1920 issue of The Wood-Worker, a magazine for the wood products industry. To see what looks like the same lathe operating, here it is at House Handle Co.
I still can't find decent handles. I can't figure out how to order from Tennessee Hickory Products. Why can't they sell online like everyone else? There is no other good place I can find. Home Depot and Lowes are the only hardware stores around here and they don't sell many handles. None that will fit a standard 8lb splitting maul. Any tips? How can I buy from Tennessee Hickory Products?
