Just wanted to update everyone that ordered a handle or handles. I received orders for 27 handles. To make sure that all handles are accurately duplicated from the original, A duplicator attachment has been ordered to install on the Jet lathe. If you ordered one handle or 5 handles, I want them to be exactly like the original handle. They won't be ready in time for Santa to deliver, but as soon as the duplicator arrives and the quality level of the finished handles is high, they will be shipped out.

I appreciate the update and your dedication to authenticity. It is the little things that make the restoration(or rustoration). Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

Missed this earlier, but I will take two if they are still available, at any price.

Looks like the handle factory is starting back up. I am working on reproducing the special bolt and special thick washer, but need to know if there is interest in a repro bolt and thick washer. The top photo shows the original bolt on the left and a prototype on the right. The bottom photo shows original on right, prototype on the left. The prototype is too long and not as smooth as it will be when I get it right. Joe
