This is a handle for my rotary table. The original table

small and inconvenient and I always wanted a better one.

The knurled
knob on the handle rotates freely. It is made out of a

1/2" Armstrong
wrench, which I had to bend to provide a more pleasing

shape and
clearance to clear various obstructions on the table. I

bent this
wrench red hot, which accounts for nice curvature.

So tell us how you mounted the knurled knob shaft to the
wrench.....
threads? press fit? silver solder? curious minds want to
know.....
