    Default Wanted - Disston 5 screw thumbhole Handle

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but it doesn't seem to belong in the for sale section either.

    I have a really nice 4TPI rip ("the chainsaw") with a broken but useable thumbhole handle and screws + medallion. I'd really like to put a complete handle on it if somebody has one. I have a 5 screw handle without the thumbhole which fits, but it just doesn't seem like the correct wrench for the job.

    Prepared to pay fair value if somebody has a handle from a ruined plate.

    Cheers

    The holes are not guaranteed to be in a repeated pattern ... maybe after 1917 there was more uniformity (not sure).
    Could you scan or photocopy the end of the blade with a ruler for scale?

    A photo could do, but they seem to distort the world ... maybe add two rulers at right angles and take a photo from directly above?

    Cheers,
    Paul

    Thanks Paul. I have house guests arriving shortly, but I'll find a way to give an accurate representation on Monday. Cheers.
