Question, why couldn't you do two piece and then you have the availability too use different wood for different pitch?

It's been my assumption that all two piece strikers have the shaft glued into the handle. I've never really researched two piece strikers because I think one piece strikers are nicer and they are harder to make. Doesn't take much to run a blank through a dowel maker and stick it in a handle.

Testing out the Tru oil to see what kind of finish I can get.


That's the first coat. I'll let it dry and check it when I get home from work to see if I need to hit it with 000 steel wool or if I can apply the second coat.
