Made a set of controls for my Elektra espresso machine from some macadamia nut wood in a different design. Unsure about it. I liked the controls on a different machine but they almost feel out of place on this one. The brew lever in particular. Little to bulbous. I may turn it down a little more.

Agree. PF good. Others taper down more toward machine.

You do beautiful work! Maybe one day when I have a higher end espresso machine I will be able to get some of your custom wood for it. :D

Turned my macadamia nut controls down a little and refinished them while the turkey was cooking today. The look much better thinned down just a bit. Surprising how much difference 1/16 of an inch in diameter makes.

Making a few knock box's for rattleware inserts. Down side to router work, it makes a big mess even with a high power dust collection system.
