Re: Heat resistant wood for tools
pretty sure most cheapo wooden handles in Bunnings are some kind of Australian hard wood they tend to be light coloured and tight grained probably not Vis ash or Tassie oak they might be black butt or turpentine (you would see the wavy grain) or silver top ash o r spotted gum

Can't figure how you can burn a handle? Mine are homemade and all have broom handles from "bunnings". Good one mostly Coates brand. No charring just smoke and ash stained. One tool that has a metal handle thats a poker of sorts made from a metal curtain rod with a tent peg welded in the end.... paints still intact one that too.
