My pick would be the Jarrah and Tassie Oak or the Camphor Laurel. Practical shape & beautiful Timber.
Forgive my ignorance, but do the bases have a thread on them or ....?

Thanks for the info. I put my coffee machine in for a warranty job about 3 weeks ago. I just picked up a new one today. there nothing wrong with the plastic handled Tamp that came with it but I do like the wooden handled ones Ive seen here.

Steve
as Pat said they have a 3/8 thread
I grabbed a bit of all thread and glued it in a number of blanks
that was so i could have a play with shapes and timbers
when I get the chance I'm going to try an off centre turningregards
