Ray, I'm preaching to the choir but someone in the pews may not have
heard the sermon:
Salvage your 3 broken roughing gouges and any unbroken continental types
by brazing or welding a length of 1/2" CRS bar to about 2" of the flute
and long enough for a replacement tang that's strong & safe.
Turn to Safety, Arch
Fortiter
