<p>We have adopted the latest thinking in ergonomic design principles and are challenging the long-held beliefs regarding tool handles. The key emphasis is now placed on lightweight handles, which have been shown to minimize the risk of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, reduce tendon damage, and alleviate fatigue during use. Recent findings indicate that arthritis sufferers have reported experiencing less pain when using our handles. Additionally, these handles provide users with a more comfortable grip, fostering improved creativity and overall usability.</p>
<p>A key feature of our tool handles is a unique octagonal shape, departing from traditional heavy round designs. This innovative form offers several advantages, including improved grip for better control. The octagonal design also facilitates easy adjustments to the shaft orientation, allowing for changes in the angle of the carbide insert against the workpiece.</p>
<p>These enhancements help users find the "sweet spot" for optimal material removal, maximising both efficiency and effectiveness. Additionally, the balanced design of our handles promotes superior tool control and stability, significantly reducing fatigue during extended use. A key feature is the advanced collet system, enabling easy adjustments of the shaft’s protrusion, which minimises the cantilever effect for a safer and more enjoyable turning experience. Our handles are designed and manufactured with the following characteristics:</p>
<ul>
<li>Ergonomic shape for natural grip and comfort.</li>
<li>Custom sizes and non-slip textures for secure handling.</li>
<li>Vibration dampening to protect hands.</li>
<li>Lightweight construction to reduce strain.</li>
</ul>
<p>To accommodate the needs of all turners and taking into account the range of operations, lathe sizes and personal preferences, we offer 4 handle systems:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>The Pico Handle: </strong>This small diameter handle is well suited for mini lathes. This handle has been designed for applications such as pen turning applications and fine detailing.</li>
<li><strong>The Micro Handle: </strong>A medium diameter long and short handle suited for mini to midi lathe applications and fine detailing.</li>
<li><strong>Mega Handle: </strong>A large diameter handle for mid to large size applications.</li>
<li><strong>The Giga Handle: </strong>Designed for large workpieces and deep hollowing applications. This large diameter handle is twice as long as the Mega Handle.</li>
