I love the human touch in any piece of art. These cups express the hands behind the creation. Thanks for sharing.

PS. Your woodwork pics get sent to a bud on Prince Edward Island who is also an avocational woodworker.

The day job has had me running 120mph for 2 weeks. I did manage to turn one lowly olive portafilter handle.

Thanks for the shout out Dave. I'm glad you're happy with the cups! I agree the glaze complements the coffee. Nothing better than a gorgeous shot in a gorgeous cup.

Loving my olive wood handles! The larger size of the steam nob makes it easier to use and the oil finish makes the wood feel so soft and lovely. All in all, a great trade.

Thanks again,
Sarah

Stunning cups. The glaze artfully complements the espresso mixed with steamed milk.

Few Ironwood parts for a coffee roaster.

So I'm fortunate enough to be the proud new owner of one of Daves hand turned gorgeously grained olive wood handles for my QuickMill Vetrano 2B. What's the consensus pick (http would also be appreciated!) for a E61 bottomless portafilter that's well priced and well built? Coupon codes? Are y'all using Loctite on the threads of the wood handle into the bottomless?

2 portafilter handles, lever handle and a a steam/water control for a Salvatore lever espresso machine in Macassar Ebony.

I just spent a better part of an hour sifting through this thread and I feel tingly inside...like pulling the perfect tri riz

If I didn't already pull the trigger on the walnut furniture set/tamper/PF from Clive (all hand made in Portland), I would be contacting you!! Thank you for making such an awesome contribution to the HB community.....your furniture is the icing on the cake!

This is my Quest M3 Roaster with Dave's handles. I think it looks great!
