Home Improvement Asked on September 1, 2021
Old swedish windows have 7mm square tubes for handles. All handles of the design I want are 8mm so I want to make them smaller.
I have access to a carpentry with very good tools for woodworking, (including mill press) and some basic stuff for metal, like an angle grinder.
It’s 11 handles, and the result doesn’t have to look nice as long as it works since the square tube is inside the handle.
Is there any good way to get rid of .5mm of the square rod at the end (only like last 10mm or so) on the handle.
I'll disagree with (most of) the comments above and say just file it. You are removing a small amount of material, you don't want to remove too much, and it won't take very long to do each one.
Without crafting some sort of jig you're far more likely to overdo it on at least some of the handles with a powered approach, and/or to make the result un-square.
I don't think you are doing so many that such a jig will be worth your time to build.
