Source of replacement cross-slide vice handles?

[Steve BowerParticipant @stevebower42241]

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

I seem to remember that Arceuro sold them. Not too sure as can't get to my catalogue just now

Every time you ask for something in imperial sizes, Ketan cringes!

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.

Bit abrasive!

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

Sorry folks, in a daft mood tonight.

you can get 5/16" sq spanners at

or if Ketan sells 8mm sq it will fit.

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