I got lotsa handles made from scrap wood with pipe or tubing

Copper tubing works a treat for ferrules. Anything to help the

Yep, it's a good use for short scrap from replumbing. I also use
leftover EMT and aluminum tubing.

Ooh, a stick of 1/2" EMT would make over 100, wouldn't it?
I'll have to remember this.


Any big electrical contractors in your area? I had one offer to let
me leave a utility trailer at his storage lot for his crews to toss all
their scrap metal into.
