Our Woodturning Handles are milled from 6061 aluminum round bar rather than tubing for better balance and strength. They are 1 1/4" in diameter. A comfortable gently ribbed rubber cover, provides great grip and keeps hands from cold surface. Tool secured with two Stainless Steel 5/16" x 18 TPI set screws. Handle choice of 5/8" or 1/2" receivers.
The 8" Woodturning Handle is our go-to handle for my beading tools, detail and spindle work - not heavy cuts.

I purchased this together with the 3/8" bushing, for use with my smaller skews and negative rake scrapers. This handle is light and such a pleasure to use. I plan to purchase some of the longer handles soon.

Simply the best! The handles have a perfect weight too them, not too heavy, not too light... just right! Helps me with controlling the tool and creating super smooth curves. Compared to any of my other handles these are the clear winner! Highly recommend!

This short handle is great for use with the beading tools. Still have plenty of room over the ways to do faceplate work on 18" lathe. Couldn't use the handle when working on my Jet 12" mini, but the tools work fine without the handle.

Have been using this handle for a few months now. Using it with the beading tools had made cutting beads easier and much more predictable. The handle itself if easy on the hands and provides just enough leverage to make the beading tools just cut very fine shavings (whips of wood). Really glad I broke down and got the handle, and the bushing.

I wasn't sure about these handles. The rubberized grip are perfect compared to handles that are not rubberized. Handle and bushing system allows you to spend less money on handles.

The 8" are in my opinion the best available for finesse tools like beading tools, or for any tool used on a mini lathe. Very well made and should last a lifetime. Highly recommend to anyone that wants the best.

Recently I purchased my first wood lathe and I am a novice at woodturning. I did a lot of research before deciding on purchasing both my lathe and my turning tools. After reading what others were saying about quality woodturning tools, I decided on purchasing D-Way tools. I called D-Way and was surprised that Dave, the owner of D-Way, answered the phone. He helped me greatly by giving me practical advice, based on his many years of woodturning experience, about which tools I would need for the particular type of turning that I wanted to do. I purchased 18 tools and 8", 12", and 16" handles from D-Way. The tools and handles arrived in three days. The quality of the tools and handles is exceptional. They arrived very sharp and I am very impressed as to how long they hold a sharp edge. I am also very pleased with the flexibility of these tools and how easy it is to switch the handles in order to have a longer or shorter length tool. I can whole heartedly recommend D-Way woodturning tools to anyone who is looking for high quality lathe tools that are sharp, cut wood like butter, and hold their sharpness well. The tools and handles are great and so is the customer service.
