I might be interested in the birdseye. What would the process for installation be?
 
Sending you a PM on this, Jeffrey.
Actually, can't. So the process varies depending on how you want to install. Some prefer beeswax, some epoxy, some Sugru. Depends in part on whether you want it to be removable without destroying the handle in the future. I've done handles with all three. I like epoxy if I think I'll leave the handle on a long time. Quick set. I would suggest that others on this forum have pretty good knowledge (better than I) on the best way to install, but overall I'd call it pretty easy!
