an old axe file to be used as a lathe tool copying a metal part

[woodman08]

I wanted to use some old axe files for parting tools or scrappers on the wood lathe and I needed to make
wood handles and I wanted to sandwich the axe file handle between 2 wood pieces and make a comfortable
handle out of red oak
I wanted the cnc machining accurate to hold these axe files tight, a reverse mould was created by pocketing out the cut
and the handle was a tight fit
Turned out well
