Got my most recent issue of BYO and there was a short article on making tap handles for really cheap. Basically you can go to Lowes or Home Depot and buy spindles for a indoor railing of your choice of wood and design (a single spindle can make 2 handles) and you can also buy the 3/8"-16 insert screw there too. I just started mine this week, and I thought I would take mine a step further by going to Michaels or any other craft store and buying some wooden plaques to attach to the spindle. I'll cut the access off at the tops and at my marks on the rounded part to make them around 9". Once its stained and all together I can make some cool labels and hogepoge them to seal them up good. Should be a good project that is really cheap!
Spindle costs: $6.25 * you get 2 handles from one spindle
Insert Screw: $1.63 x 2
Wooden Plaques: $1 ea.
Stain, poly, sandpaper, hogepoge already have...
Please post if you have other cool ideas...
