So, who sells Nupla holders and greenies at a discount.
They're NOT cheap, are they? Travers gets $25.04 + $6.10
for each tip. SPS-155 holder + 2ea 15T tips + shipping =
over $40 for a hammah? Ouch!

Yeah, they're proud of them, but making one is a fun project and saves a
little money, assuming you have a piece of material you don't cherish.
That way all you have to buy is the handle (wood is more than adequate) and
tips. They're worth the money, regardless of your approach. You'll use it
for years, facing only the occasional replacement of tips.


Yeah, turning a handle vould be verry zimple, vouldn't it?
Thanks for the idea. I've always found rubber too soft and
plastic to hard/brittle for my rare non-metallic needs. I'll
have to order some of those tips and go from there.
