The Handle.—A handle may be made for the cooky cutter in exactly the same way as the handle made for the biscuit cutter. A strip of tin 1¼ inches wide and 4 inches long, is about the right size for the handle. The edges are folded in and the strip is rounded over an anvil and soldered into place as indicated in the photograph.
The edges of the handle should rest directly over the cutting strip under it.
When finished, the cooky cutter should be boiled up in the lye bath or washed with hot water and strong soap and then it is ready for use.
