1.The material is 85mm square beech wood, which is cut to a length of 85mm and processed into a rectangular prism. |
2.One point of the apex is cut off and processed so that it can be pushed by the rotation center of the tailstock. |

3.In this way, use an awl to make a depression where the peak was. |
4.Grab it with a three-jaw chuck and press it with the tailstock to secure it. |

5.Turn the outside to make a grip and cut. |
6.It will have a shape like this. |

7.Since the gripping area would get scratched if it was grabbed directly, a protective ring was made by bending a 0.6 mm thick tin plate into a circle. |
8.Insert a protective ring and hold with a Bantam chuck. |
|
 |
 |
|
9.Press the opposite vertex with the turning center and begin turning. |
