Colonial TL-29 Mod... The death of a screwdriver....
Posted: Tue Mar 22, 2016 11:49 pm
Had the pieces setting around for this build for a long time. I started with a electricians knife from Colonial.
This is just like the one I started with except this one has stainless steel blades. So I went from this.
To this! I laid the screwdriver to rest by converting it to a wharncliff and laying it in this coffin jack. I'm playing with the finish trying to get a distressed coffin look to it. The liners and bolsters are one piece and made from aluminum. Handle material is Camellia wood that I have darkened. Its normally a very pale color.
It looks a little chunky from this view.
But when compared to the colonial TL-29 its about the same thickness and little shorter.
Thanks for looking!
