Hello Everyone. I was looking for some assistance. Do any of you have any ideas what I could use to finish off the pull lever that is attached to my electrical manifold? I have been to Home Depot with the idea to use a drawer pull knob, but there openings on the back where to small for the lever to fit. If I had to I might be able to drill the hole out wider so it will fit. But before I do that I was looking for ideas from you. I am not aware of any place that sells the original or reproduction part. If you can come up with some other ideas I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Marvin

if you have a Hobby Lobby near you they have all kinds of round wooden things for crafting....then just drill the right size hole. I've done it several times. If no Hobby Lobby ask your wife where the largest crafting store is at...

Marvin, in the past I have used the pull knob from a vanity sink drain plug. I am referring to the pull rod that is located in the middle of the faucet to open and close the drain. They are nicely chromed and come attached to an approx 8" long rod.
