I wanted the real handle. On woodnet a member was kind to send a scan of the handle with numbers.

Alex did all the turning after I destroyed some yew I've brought. Love padauk, though the camara doesn't fetch all the colours.

Pedder: Nice job, but you have to admit: that original handle had character. Phil

It's going to be hard to find those screws.  Can't you use the ones from the prior handle, they are likely original.  Otherwise, you can re-tap to match what screws you find.

Glad to see the handle come together. I wondered if you ever got to it, but like me and my shop projects things take time.

After reading about this I had to check mine to see what it had for screws as I wouldn't think that they would be metric and what I found is they are not metric but a special size 1/4" plus x18 threads,which I can't figure out why they would that.I would check ebay and get one with the bolts in it as cheap as I could buy or re-drill and tap for 5/16 -18 screw.

What's that French phrase for "to each his own"?  Now I remember--"what the heck were you thinking, dude"?  Nice rehab, but that color is so "not my cup of tea".  (That's a U.S. expression, translation = "There's no accounting for taste".)
