I need to replace a couple of handles for my cross-slide vice – the originals are about 3″ with the ‘counterweight’ and fit a 5/16″ square drive. Any recommendations for suppliers? Ta

Just calling as I see it. Can always modify! Just looking for the handles.

[edit]

That Arc Euro looks just the job. I'll have to turn the shaft down, unless there are any square drive options

The option is called a file.

I thought that making squares was merely grist for the mill.

Sorry folks, in a daft mood tonight.

Nobody yet broached the option of hammering a square thingy down the round hole
