Hi. I purchased an ice chisel head, and now I have to make a handle. I want a one-piece handle about 2 m long. The ferrule interior diameter is about 3 cm (1 5/8").
Options I have considered are:
1. Buying a suitably sized dowel and reducing the end size to fit in the ferrule.
2. Cutting down a suitably sized tree. Would probably have to dry it so it might take some time.
3. Laminating up a stick and carving it down to size, as one might for making a paddle.
Just wondering if anyone has experience or suggestions for making a chisel handle. Thanks.
