Looking good Dave, thus far.... I can't help with advice on the handle...you may care to speak to someone at an electroplaters...there may be a repair schedule that you could use before they re-chrome... there may be a way they can fix it for you....other than fabricating a new one...I can't see any other options.
Please do not PM me asking for support. Please post your questions in the appropriate forums, as the replies it may receive may help all members, not just the individual member. Kindest Regards, Darryl
