    You can buy the spring steel rod in SS. Let's say 1/8" x 3' works great, but I just did one in Kydex, and it works great. Use a heat gun, mold it with your hands.

    What's on the wheel now? Does that have to come off first? If you remove what's on the wheel, then you would have flanges on the two ends that the leather would need to be proud of, so it might not be 8 to 9 oz, but 10 to 11 oz. I would put that on with barge cement with a minimum of a 3/4 " scarf. Laid with the lap in the correct direction. Sorry had that wrong thought

    Once, I was teaching a classroom of kids about the many different kinds of hammers a woman came to pick up her boy early. I was just finishing up when she came over to me and said Are all of those hammers yours I said Yes, they are. She then said If you were my husband, I would kick you right in the ass I asked her why, and she said in a heavy Irish brogue Why would a man need more than one hammer? after I explained just the hammers on the table, she got the point. She said to me Wow, I never thought of that. LOL to Hondo Man's point, you don't use a 22oz waffle head framing hammer for finish work. or a tack hammer for framing. LOL

    In the woodworking world, they make a tool called a butt gauge, which you could come in from the side, probably 4 or 5 inches, and a small, custom-ground blade could be easily fitted in that cross beam, set to the depth, and cut away. That would be a simple tool to make.

    Wow, that is amazing.
