It has been a wonderful Christmas so far. Due to the generosity of @SixZeroFour and @MacEggs I have been lucky enough to add some amazing @zavod44 handles. A few quick photos using Bisbee as a model:

Mahogany. Not only is it beautiful, the wood has a great story behind it. Thank you Mark!

My Secret Santa from Matt. This stuff is so exotic looking (tiger wood?):

I had a feeling that the mahogany would look good on Bisbee. Don't forget about your copper M/T. :D ;)

Very cool @Winz - love them all!
The Zebrawood is very similar to Tigerwood but a bit more of a tan base color compared to the orangish hues you get in the Tiger. The blocks Brian used to produce these handles I've had stashed away for over 15 years since I was a young buck working at a specialty lumber store. 8)
There are 6 in existence, all made by the handle master of course...

^^ @Stu Clary: Some more beautiful examples! Stu kindly sent me another zav along with a recent trade - I will post some better pics of here it soon!

They all look great. My favorite is the Mahogany handle. I wouldn't mind have a few of those. Tigers ones also score very high marks as well. I think mine from Zavod are the oak ones which looks 100% better than the plastic handles. Might have to see about some Mahogany ones.

How 'bout some vintage Rosewood? My son is a percussionist, and I restored a bunch of instruments for him over the years. I have a big box of marimba bars that are no longer tunable, so there they sit. Back in the day, marimba and xylophone bars were made from the highest quality rosewood - long before it was protected. Long story short, Brian took the challenge to make a few handles from the old bars, and I asked him to leave the holes in them to add character - I was not looking for perfection. (They are strung on a frame to allow them to resonate, each bar has two holes.) They turned out great, and my son was jazzed to add one to his Performer.

I got some a little bit ago......the first ones to land here at the Kettle Orphanage.....
I've seen them one other people's kettles, but these will grace some special ones here......just need to choose ones I can keep covered or indoors, as there's not room for everyone to do that.....
Courtesy MacEggs for the wood & of of course, the Mighty Zav for the carving !!!

I use apricot for all my smoking. Its a slightly sweet smoke that goes equally good with pork and beef. It also happens to be very plentiful here, the area north of town is dotted with apricot ranches. I explained this to Zav as I sent him a couple apricot sticks. Well, I got these beauties in the mail today...

I gotta say, @MrHoss, that handle looks outstanding. :D
I have to send out a million "thank you's" to @zavod44 for his amazing craftsmanship and attention to detail with the wood handles.
The mahogany wood belonged to my Great Uncle. He died in 1974. My folks had a bunch of it in their possession.
I grabbed some of it last year, and decided to send some to Brian. He accepted my handle request without hesitation.
With some patience on both ends, the handles finally arrived ....
Unfinished handles ..... Then some Danish oil applied .... They currently have 2 coats of spar varnish on them with maybe 2 more coats to finish ..

@zavod44 Brian I just recently got ahold of a few solid limbs of Osage orange and need to know what size blocks to cut it into to send over for 3 handles??? Its newly cut as of 3 weeks ago.

Not trying to speak for @zavod44 here, but IIRC, 1" tall X 1.125" wide X 6.25" long was the minimum for one handle? I could have sworn that Brian specified the size in another post or PM that of course, I can't find at the moment.

I've got some osage orange limbs as well. Those should make some beautiful handles...

Santo your close, it actually needs to be 12" x 1"x 1.25" that's the minimum for one handle. If you need three, then 12"x 1" x let's say 4".....so twelve inches long by one inch thick by 4 inches wide.....that will make three. We don't want to cut it so close to the bone there isn't enough

Beautiful handles and kettles. Love that blue shade.
It is just stupid that I don't really care what color paint the wife wants on the walls of our home, yet I really admire kettle colors. A lot.

Here's my two latest handles from Brian. Just absolutely stunning!
The bottom one is just incredible. It's solid ebony which is going on my blacked-out/midnight performer. Pics of that one coming soon. The weight and feel of this one just screams quality.
The top one is going on an 18 pat. pending avocado. I love that he includes little covers to go over the screws so it looks like it was riveted on, nice attention to detail!
Pics don't do them justice! The quality is just outstanding, even my wife was super impressed. Can't wait til the weather clears up, so I can get them installed. Then again it's nice to have them upstairs so I can keep checking them out!
Thanks again @zavod44

And I still have one pair of handles left to put on my three wheeler I keep at a friends house!
@zavod44 - I'm probably going to want one more handle, vent tab, and a set of rollers for my 26er. I didn't account for those when I ordered everything else. You can go ahead and make them up whenever is convenient for you and send me a PM with a total.

Tons of character. The shades, colors, speckling, & graining are really unique. Both handles have some pink wave. Top even has a little hint of purple wave, plus a tiny little bit of live edge.

Got these from Brian. They are Osage orange. They really pop against my '14 Crimson OTG. Quick backstory, this kettle was a rush out to Ace Hardware and buy two years ago this week when the news broke of the lid handle change for 2015. I pulled a Troy and sacrificed grocery money to buy this. 
I know some don't care for Crimson but I like this color and I actually like the matte finish on it. Fast forward to last month and Brian set me up with these handles. Thanks again, Brian!

These were taken when the grill was HOT so it's a little darker here. Yes in the tradition of the red kettle, crimsons darken when hot. When Crimson heats up, it resembles a 2000-01 plum kettle. I'll snap some cold pictures later.

Dropped some 1"x10" boards off with Brian during the Chicago meet-up. I happened upon the wood when a friend told he had some dense boards he was gonna throw in the fire. These things are like bricks!!!(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160904/4d271711a0196bafd956abbb9144cf78.jpg)

I always tell him to surprise me. Never seen an order, till I open the envelope. Never disappointed! I take that back. I have seen one handle, before it was sent out. That one didn't go to me though.

The million dollar question is how the hell do I get the plastic tab off of the top lid vent? I have tried prying it and it does not want to budge. I am afraid if I pry too much I am going to bend the vent since its just aluminum.

Brian had these beautiful Bocote handles on Ebay and I was lucky enough to get them. They look great on my Euro MT and I can't wait to see how they look in the sunlight

Mine is coming in a few days and I still don't know exactly what I am getting. I let him know what I wanted and he takes it from there. I know I won't be disappointed so it is all good.

I got the plastic vent lever off, I was able to lay a screwdriver down along it and pull up enough to get it to pop off without bending the vent. Thanks for the words of wisdom. Now I just need to roll her out into the sun and get some photos of everything installed.

Which handles on your Ivory? I was thinking of Black and white ebony on mine. This maybe my favorite so far. Tiger wood, Zebra, or Cedar might all be nice on Ivory too.
I got much more handles to load up here. All of his handles are amazing. Hard choices which one goes on which kettle. Lots of fun though.

@Jason, what rivets did you use on these handles and where did you pick them up from? I need to get a pair for a "special project" I have going on.

They are pretty awesome but wondering if these Lacewood I been told are actually Leopardwood.
Lacewood -
QuoteHas a very conspicuous flecking that gives this wood its namesake. The wood itself is a reddish brown with grey or light brown rays, which result in a lace pattern when quartersawn.

Leopardwood -
QuoteHas a very conspicuous flecking that gives this wood its namesake. The wood itself is a medium to dark reddish brown with grey or light brown rays, which resemble the spots of a leopard.
QuoteLeopardwood is frequently confused with Lacewood, and is sometimes referred to as such. Leopardwood (Roupala spp.) can usually be separated from most species of Lacewood (Panopsis spp.) based upon its darker color and higher density.

Regardless, they are beautiful.

Scott has a real keen eye when it comes to the unique handles and how they match with different colors, he has some pretty special combinations.

Let the parade continue, this STUNNING Eucalyptus Burl handle that Brian created looks AWESOME on the green 18.5 OTP. Even in the sunlight the pictures don't do it justice.

Why are some handles rectangular square cut and others roundish cut? Is it preference?

Are you talking about the difference between these two handles @Speedster? If so, the top handle is the older, two rivet style that was on Webers with Metal Bowl Handles (MBH). The bottom picture is the single screw handle that was flat. They switched from the two rivet to the single screw style in 1981.

@Scott Zee I love that stripe down the center of that Cocobolo. It's a actually an interesting quick read about the origin of that tree and how it's used. Sounds like you got the best of both worlds with that particular piece of stock.
I've had to look up a few of these names to find out where they come from. If your interested and haven't already looked it up.

That is nice! Cocobolo is very dense and heavy wood similar to Ebony wood. I am tempted to order one. But, too many other wood types already. Resisting the urge.I must stop. I must stop.
Do not make a raft out of either wood... it will sink. (updated to raft from boat) ;)

You are probably right. I am novice when it comes to making boats or wood types. My interest in wood types have peaked as I have some beautiful collection of Zav wood handles going. I said that as a figure of speach, but literally wood sinks as it is like a rock.
Check this clip out to see how heavy these woods are. You will know why I said that. :) :) :)

Yeah, not a raft! The ebony logs are heavier than water.
Floating a boat is about displacement of water. Place a glass bowl in a tub of water and it will float, sinking into the water only to the point where the weight of the glass is equal to the weight of water displaced (by the air in the bowl, mostly).
But fill the bowl with water and it will sink to the bottom.
So you could make a boat from ebony, even though the ebony itself is heavier than water.
That's probably more physics than most people come here for, though... :)

Thanks! I got a set of brand new Fireplace handles from Darko (Thanks @ Darko) to restore my Weber Fireplace later on. I just used one of it on the Ivory minus the wood that came with it.
Taco shell comes off easy if you just want to use the stock handle strap. Taco shell is lightly pressed on to 2 bolts. I did not use any of the stock handle assy.

Koa I was gifted from @MrHoss on my 18.5 Pat# yellow. I don't know how I missed posting this beauty in the parade.

Let's continue the parade.
I love this live edge Box Elder handle. First I tried it on the Lime SJ, but much better on this dark green Performer I think.

Quote from: MacEggs on February 16, 2015, 04:20:38 PMthose handles are beautiful
I gotta say, @MrHoss, that handle looks outstanding. :D
I have to send out a million "thank you's" to @zavod44 for his amazing craftsmanship and attention to detail with the wood handles.
The mahogany wood belonged to my Great Uncle. He died in 1974. My folks had a bunch of it in their possession.
I grabbed some of it last year, and decided to send some to Brian. He accepted my handle request without hesitation.
With some patience on both ends, the handles finally arrived ....
Unfinished handles ..... Then some Danish oil applied .... They currently have 2 coats of spar varnish on them with maybe 2 more coats to finish ..

Thanks to Mark @MacEggs for this beautiful mahogany handle and Brian @zavod44 for his master craftsmanship. In was torn as to what SJG this beauty should go on. After trying it and looking GREAT on both a copper and green I've decided to go with the Green "DI" SJG. Nice contrast between the rich mahogany and green.

That is a new style, same as the new MT lid handles to mount the screw from the bot. so the top handle shows no screw caps. It was either special ordered that way or Zav got drunk or so tired he drilled thru from the wrong side. I would guess that you requested to have it done this way.
Lets see how it looks from the top. I think it would look sharp with no screw head or the hole showing.

That is a new style, same as the new MT lid handles to mount the screw from the bot. so the top handle shows no screw caps. It was either special ordered that way or Zav got drunk or so tired he drilled thru from the wrong side. I would guess that you requested to have it done this way.
Lets see how it looks from the top. I think it would look sharp with no screw head or the hole showing.

Brian cut these out of some Oak barrel staves. Really nice touch to keep with the Jack Daniel's theme. Artwork mimics the branding on the whisker barrels.

You can always feel free to ask me direct. The issue is, wood is a natural thing and it swells and shrinks differently between the kinds of wood. Does it come off or is it just loose?

I'm obviously not Brian, but does it fit snug? If so, I would probably just put a little superglue on the metal vent tab, slip it on and see if it holds. If not, there's all kinds of high heat adhesives out there on Amazon etc... You could probably just wrap your vent tab with a little aluminum foil or foil tape to shore it up. Just throwing out some ideas.

I think sometimes the issue is with the vent tab. I have that issue with my copper performer. I've tried 3 tabs and they're all loose, but they are fine on my other grills.

It's not snug at all. The aluminum foil is a good idea. My vent tab originally came with a plastic handle. I'm also not ruling out that something broke off the inside when I first tried putting it on.
Side question @zavod44 . Did you come out with the wood roller for the newer style lid bale? I remember you said you were working on it.

@ Mr.CPHo - Tiger wood is what is called due to the pattern. Different from Zebra wood against the grain, but not really sure what type of wood used.
Zav is the man. PM him for anything you want.

Do you have a yellow Mr Hoss? I'd like to see it on yellow.
Yes but what you ask is not possible. A Homer yes but not a Yellow as they were only available during the era of double rivet handles.

A Koa handle on a Avocado @LightningBoldtz passed on to me. @Scott Zee this is one of the sisters to the handle on your Yellow 18. A third unused one that is a lighter shade than the one I just put on also exists.....it would look awesome on a darker Kettle.

Thanks to Brian @zavod44 for making these sweet handles. And to @Troy for giving me the WKC 5th Anniversary handle last Saturday. Can't thank you both enough. Brian made a bunch of the meetup handles (exclusive for the meetup) and each club member present got to pick out one to take home.

The handles shown above were only available at the chicago meetup last weekend. But @zavod44 makes other wood handles very similar minus that particular engraving. Hit him up for something custom or check out http://weberkettleclub.com/weber-handles/ (http://weberkettleclub.com/weber-handles/)

The handles engraved with "Chicago Meet Up" were exclusives... not sure if the handles engraved with the WKC name/5th anniversary logo are being sold or not.... @zavod44?

Thanks guys but I'm just wanting some of the Weber logo handles. I figured the "Chicago meet up" handles were only for that occasion. I need a few double rivet and a couple of the single screw. So Zav makes the ones you can order from the WKC page??

Just PM him and let him know what you are interested in and what kind of wood. If you aren't really sure he will do an awesome job of laying out some options for you.

That first picture from Scott Zee reminds me of an open mouth with a couple top teeth showing. Kind of like someone is trapped in there demanding some of that tasty food coming out of the grill.

This handle is really unique. The knot hole allows for viewing of the green lid handle strap through the wood handle.

Live Edge Hickory on the Black Pearl. The live edge is actually bark and gives the illusion of the handle being burnt.

Zavod,
Howdy. Looking for three handles for my new charcoal Go-Anywhere. This is going to be a "go to the beach grill", what kind of wood species do you recommend-- because I'll take it (if available)
Thanks.

@Bob BQ Fantastic combo.
Something cool about the Osage orange wood... when I first got them, they were a much lighter, yellowish color. My blue grill was under cover for a couple of months, and in that time, the wood darkened to the brown that you see above. @zavod44, I mentioned this to you at the meet up.
Here are some before pics:

@zavod44 I pm'd you last week about some handles also. Was looking for a replacement 2 rivet handle for my yellow and a set for my dark blue MT. Thanks.

Has anyone heard from zavod lately? I know he was busy with the annual get together but I haven't got a message returned in a few weeks. Not in a huge rush but I gotta get me some handles for this ssp restoration!

Received my first set of Zavod handles this week as a gift. Got a feeling there will be more added to my collection at some point. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170723/91aad323094854c64f812b3ddb04faf6.jpg)

A Koa handle on a Avocado @LightningBoldtz passed on to me. @Scott Zee this is one of the sisters to the handle on your Yellow 18. A third unused one that is a lighter shade than the one I just put on also exists.....it would look awesome on a darker Kettle.
where is the third one?

Don't worry about the GA. Picked up a couple of teak 5th anniversary meet up handles at the Chicago area meet up for the side handles, and just ordered a third teak Weber handle from Brian off eBay today.

Handles are beautiful. Other than not over tightening; anybody have any suggestions on how to keep the handles tight? It seems that on two of mine, the handles seem to twist out of position over time.

Traditionally was a wood handle or a plastic both with a groove.
Brian's have nice aluminum inlays instead.

Is your handle strap one of the older, welded on straps, or the newer "taco" handle strap that gets bolted on? Brian can help you out with either type so that the handle does not spin.

@zavod44 , Hey brian, wondering if I can pick your brain for a sec, how are you profiling the bottom part of the handle, router, moulding head on a tablesaw, a shaper or something fancier like a CNC? thanks, Darin

I couldn't decide if my smoke needed light or dark handles...so I thought why not both...this Bubinga wood handle has both sapwood and heartwood giving it nice contrast. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170821/28c394712cd4168831b49a03372b7fc7.jpg)

Bam, those are nice! I have bought several of Brian's handles to restore old kettles but always after I get them and admire them they seem to good to put on a cooker. I finally got brave enough to put a set on my restored ranch but now have to use a cover. Funny I only use the cover to protect the handles.

I'm with @JDD that these handles are so nice I want to keep them as best I can. That said winter is coming up and it gets below freezing all the time. Do people typically take off the wooden handles and put the plastic ones back on during the winter until it warms up again?

Welcome to WKC.
Click the "Wooden Handles" link under the kettle image for more info about zavod44's handles.:

Or you might try sending him a PM at the My Messages link, also up in the top ribbon nav on each page here.
Also, he will sometimes make some available on eBay, as seller executor70: https://www.ebay.com/sch/executor70/m.html?item=282664406006&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

Are the newer-style taco lid handle brackets the same as the traditional ones? I wonder if the handles are different or interchangeable.

I gotta say, the yellow hue of this Osage orange is stunning. Looks amazing on blue kettles, as well. And red, and yep... yellow.

I couldn't resist. I'll admit that I thought to was a little silly to try to dress up a grill a few years ago, but now I'm a believer. Gotta get one for my blue performer and my 26 now. I think I'll leave the old plastic handles on my pizza kettle. Thanks Brian! Great craftmanship.

Beautiful! I need to figure out a new handle strap for mine so I can do that. Older whitewalls are on the way.

@kingforce you got options, brother!
1) This link is at the top of nearly every page, http://weberkettleclub.com/weber-handles/
2) Also, occasionally a post will be separately created, somewhere (here it was in "Online" sales but it's actually a "Member" sale: http://weberkettleclub.com/weber-handles/ )
The eBay link in that thread will of course consist of fluid inventory. It's the same seller (Brian/zavod44)
3) Alternatively you can send a private message, especially if you possess special wood for cutting, or want a custom engraving etc.

Nice! I love the double rivets. I got basically the same cedar one from Zav for the cabin cado. It has a cool swirl on one end. The Koa handles came from my Secret Santa, and will be used on my LE red. Beautiful work, Brian!

Woa! Looks like you really have a handle on handles! How can I get one for my 18" black with 3 vents on bottom. Not sure all that description matters... I have a picture of the 18" here in the introduce yourself section.

I just got these from Brian. Three myrtles for my 18 brownie. Two mahogany for an incoming 18 black three-wheeler. As a preview, I put one on the brownie. I love the light and dark grain with the brown kettle. The other two handle straps need to be bent back into shape before handles will fit. The pics don't do the handles justice. I'm sending Brian this nice piece of black walnut to be turned into double rivets and center screws. The grain is really cool and should look beautiful with finish. One will be going on my Folks' Performer, another onto the red 18 MBH I just got from kettlebb, and some will be going to this year's Secret Santa recipient. More pics to follow as my projects progress.

I think I'm starting to dislike Brian. OMG!!! I have a bunch of his handles, and now I'm looking at my kitchen cupboards. I'd need to buy about 30 of them... my wife would probably kill me(but I would die with a smile!!!)
It's worse than crack! Everytime I see one of Brian's handles I just want more!!!

Zav's eBay site is under the name executor70. He does not have any handles up currently. When he is putting a bunch up on his site, he usually posts an alert here on the Forum.

Yes, that's also Grill Giant's site for them.
And hopefully individual pics will be uploaded, or at least "representative" examples for the different kinds of wood offered, although for something like regular oak I can see where that wouldn't be necessary.

@Neil_VT00 that zebra handle is the shiznit. Holy moly!! I think I'm in love.
@zavod44, Honeybun and I were blessed and highly favored to attend the meetup and receive one of the special handles you made for the event. I promptly put it on my WSM and I smile every time I see it. As Ole Smokey is a cooker and not a looker, that handle is getting used a lot. :) I don't cover so what should I do to take care of it? I don't mind it getting "patina" I want to use it, I just want to make sure I'll be using it for a hella-long time.

(Not the best photos, but...)
Good place to show off a mostly-donated frankenkettle 26er. A few parts from members (special thanks to michaelmilitello), a local non-member friend, and some a cherry Zav handle set (thanks to Grillgiant).
With the older-style whitewall tires and custom handles, I couldn't be happier with how it looks. (Well, perhaps if it was a colored flat top of some sort, I'd be happier with how it looks, but short of that...)
Sorry - no matter what I do, picture rotates to horizontal. Bah.

I was definitely looking at a couple of the live edge handles, those look great!

Today, I just received my first pieces from @zavod44 for several of my pickups over the summer. Hopefully, I can get them in place this weekend, but I can't wait that long to share with you all. I've read on this thread and elsewhere how awesome his work is, but like many know you can't really appreciate them until you have them in hand.
First up, the Performer Dead Set in tiger maple. Wasn't my original wood choice, but when the master suggests something how do you argue with it? And he was totally correct.
We worked out the concept art and he made it work in an amazing way! These are scheduled to go on my new to me blue performer (@dwnthehatch 's former grill that he was kind enough to get me started with). Can't wait to get them in place! Thanks again @zavod44.
