If you have tools you really like, it can be heartbreaking when you are unable to use those tools anymore due to wear and tear.

One such instance is if you have an excellent garden tool which you cannot use without a good handle, such as an ax or saw, or any blade of any kind. While most people would likely write off the tool as being a goner, there are those DIYers who simply will not let things die.

And why should they? A good tool is a good tool, and there's no reason to spend good money on a brand new one when you could easily fix the original.

In one example, a craftsman who really, really liked his Japanese-style handsaw knew that the only way he could live with himself was to craft a new handle for the tool.

You can learn his method of how he went about crafting a new handle for his handsaw on the next page.
