PROJECT #2206_
Skill Level: Intermediate
Time: 1 Day
Cost: $30
There’s almost no greater feeling than pulling a perfectly cooked slab of meat off the grill. Flipping that juicy, perfectly seasoned pork chop with a utensil you made? Near perfection. By utilizing a few simple metalworking tools in your woodshop, you can produce a set of grilling tools fit for the most decorated grill masters.
As you can see in the main photo above, the tools I made here are certainly a matching set. The mahogany handles share a common shape. At the business is where each of them differ a little bit. The fork and flipper require a little bit of metal working. The grill scraper has a head that’s easily replaced once it’s used up. Upon first glance, you might ask why a wooden scraper? Well, the wood head does a great job of cleaning grates and doesn’t have the nasty habit of leaving metal spears like wire brushes.
Handles First
As I mentioned, the handles of the tools all share a common shape, so you might as well work them in a batch. Start off at the drill press. Use a brad point bit to define the radius of the teardrop hanging hole.
