    Perfect Handle Screwdriver

    Have any of you made a screwdriver and machined it then put on a custom handle? Wondering if I'm better off working from a mold then machining the final thickness and then tempering it in a kiln. Also what do you guys think of using curly figured poplar for tool handles?
