It came to us in an $1.00 junk box from an auction....tarnished brass, no clapper, no handle, just a solid brass school bell..... well around here, that presents a challenge!
The screw in the last picture was used to make both the clapper and the handle. Turned down on the lathe to show a bit of style and design, then attached to the bell itself. Next was a piece of pretty wood for the handle.
