Antique Hatchet Restoration. SORT OF...

Alright, how would you call this experiment? Hatchet restoration? Makeover? Wrecking an hatchet head? Yes, I know this kind of handle doesn’t make any sense: it’s heavy ( or 3lbs), slippery and so unpractical to make. This project is just for fun, my hope is to inspire others to make something just for fun. The hatchet is not branded, bought it for 4€ at flea market. For me it’s totally worth the experiment and fun of it! As you can see the mold I made failed, that’s why one side of the handle (the one facing up in the mold) is not as clean as the other. I guess making a taller mold with way more sand would have made it much better. Next time! It still came out real solid, I’ve beaten that as hard as I can and it had no sign of weakening at all. I just started to list some of the stuff I use for my projects in this amazon storefront: It’s affiliate marketing, so if you order something from here you’ll help the channel for free! Thank you!
