Hey @ScottADalrymple those look great !!! Would you mind sharing more details on your taps? size? type of wood? I have a local watering hole that I want to gift a tap with so any and all info would be appreciated. Thanks

The handles are made of oak and maple, I used a v-bit to carve the lettering and part of the hops design, the arms of the design I used a down-cut bit. The brass pipes are 1/4"x 1 1/2" from local hardware store (plumbing aisle). The bottom threaded inserts where supplied by the friend they are for. But those where drilled 1/2" wide x 1/2 deep, and they have an internal thread of 3/8x16".
Are the Oak pieces about 10 inches long? Turned out really great… Great work again!
The oak is 8 inches long, thank you
