Here's the above pieces
in situ.
The tamper is a 49.3mm Reg Barber brass base with David's fine cocobolo handle.
Now I need to upgrade the lever to brass and strip/polish the copper.
Thanks David!

Great work! Can you DM me a price for just the handles? Have you ever worked with African Palm wood? Thanks

That's what I refer to when I'm thinking Macassar ebony!! What a marvel. Nature can, as always, show the best True art, be it a piece of stone, shell or wood, and the OP craftmanship is as always excellent in revealing the inner, hidden beauty of a simple, basic thing like a humble piece of wood. Bravo!
