We bought this wine bottle opener for $2 at a yard sale, not noticing
that it was missing a part. *It has never been used. *It is missing the
part that is at the top of the 3 piece cylindrical shaped thing right
under the handle. *What is sticking up now is a threaded end. *It looks
like standard threads, 1/2" dia.

If I could describe the missing nut, it would look like a small cup
with
threads inside.

Does anyone have any idea where I might find such an item? *If it came
to it, I could make one by getting a nut, welding a top on it, and
grinding it down to round. *But the real deal would be better.

Needs to go on 1/2" shaft with standard or coarse threads.

Now you have a good excuse to buy a lathe.
