I have a slotted turner (cookery) with a thin stainless steel
blade, which I really like, but the handle is made of a plastic
that bubbles and swells if you rest it on the side of the pan
(or get it too close to the flame or similar).

Id like to replace the handle, but that requires a material
that:

* is D-I-Y workable
* has low thermal conductivity
* resists exposure to high temperatures
* is dishwasher proof

any suggestions?

Melamine cutting board, cut to shape, layered, layers epoxied together, then
rasped, sanded & polished to shape.

"Micarta"

Google for ready made "silicone handles", and see if a cover fits as a
protector.
