Replace it, grind off the rivets and remove all the wood and replace with a new handle. Or you can make one from a Hickory limb or other hard wood, you will have to shape it by carving away excess wood.

Oven door handle has broken. Model TKC 1255/2/SS. I am unable to find a supplier who stocks spares for this - can you help

Try ebay, or thefind.com. Otherwise, some appliance recycle locations may have a used. Or a handy repair man may be able to fashion a repair or wooden replacement. If you still have the parts, and somewhat DIY inclined, JB Weld Epoxy and a metal threaded rod or similar reinforcement in a hollow handle may be the fix.

Garbage disposer model GFC520F silently hums but not spinning

Hi! It sounds like one of your blades is jammed on something. Easy to fix! Make sure the garbage disposer is switched off (not necessary to unplug). Any large wooden handle tool (not a wooden spoon or plastic broom-they snap..1 to 1 1/2 inch diameter) axe handle, wooden broom ect., put the handle into the bottom garbage disposer on an angle. get nthe handle against the bottom and side where they come together. With gentle pressure, rotate the wooden handle until you feel it stop. This will be a blade..there are usually 2 at opposite sides inside there. Push against it till you feel it break loose in a clockwise direction. Once forced loose it should run again. Whatever jammed it will still be in there so you can to grind it up but it's advised to look with a flashlight and locate and remove the object. FYI...if your disposer is ever non-responsive, there is a red button either on the bottom or back of the disposer. This is a re-set button. Good to know. Let me know if you still have problems. Hope this fixes it for you!

I have an 8" square

Maybe replace the broken wooden handle with a similar length metal one. I'm sure it could be welded or fastened to the metal plate in some sturdy fashion. If not, check your local hardware store for shovel handles and the like. They usually last for many years.

I need a replacement handle

I had to replace all the wood on my grill. I used a wooden clothes dowel rod for the lid handle (planed one side flat, routed a grove for the insert and kept the old wooden insert), replaced the shelves with 5 in. redwood fencing slats (2 per side works better than the original 3 in. slats), and used a smaller dowel for the bin handle. It is now better than new.

Wont start

Do the head lights turn on? AAre they bright? If not, get the battery charged.

If they are bright, leave them on and try to start the car while somone watches the headlights. Do they dim a lot or go out? If so,clean the connections on the battery terminals. If they do not go out, you most likly have a starter problem. If this is the case, get a wooden shovel handle and give the starter a whack. You may get the brushes to seat one more time and get the car started so you can get it to the shop[.

Good Luck

Digger support

Search local home and garden stores to find a post hole digger. Many department stores sell post hole diggers too. A local greenhouse or tractor supply store is also a good place to look for a post hole digger. Decide on he type of digger you'll need for the job. Although post hole diggers come in different sizes and types, they generally dig the same size hole. Know that it takes a lot of strength to dig holes with a post hole digger, but there are a diggers available with special features that allow someone not quite as strong to use the digger too. Pick up and examine the different post hole diggers while you're shopping. Compare the feel and weight of the tools. Pretend to dig holes and see how it handles. Compare the features and designs of different post hole diggers. Most are manufactured from fiberglass or steel, but some have a different shaped handles for specific digging jobs. Determine if you'd rather have a fiberglass handle or a wooden one. Fiberglass is lighter and more resistent to sun damage than wooden handles. Select a post hole digger based on your preferences, the job required and who'll be using the tool. Plan to spend more on a post hole digger that's made from steel or for heavy duty use. The range for a post hole digger is generally under $50.

Danby icemaker not pumping water

I have the same problem, the ice shovel was catching and not moving forward to shovel the ice, this stopped the ice maker. i have cleaned off the surplus plastic from the molding process (on the underside of the shovel) and this so far has cued the problem.
