Broke me broom.
Yeah I've wrecked me broom handle, eh?
Whats the best way to replace this?
I heaps like the brushy bit at the bottom of me broom so I'm not fussed on buyin a new broom.
Like me old broom.
So what do I do. I got some of that uh, woodwork stuff in me shed.
Can I snap off a branch and sand her back or somethin?
Thanks lads.

Not sure how you broke it but if it in two parts then drill a hole in both ends after squaring up and put in a dowel. Then wrap the joint with another material, like a PVC pipe or aluminum.

Easiest way would be to get yourself done to the nearest local hardware and buy a new handle for about $10-$15

My Mother in law had an accident with her broom the other day, she was flying too low.
Reality is no background music.

I've had the same broom for over 20 years, only replaced the head 5 times and the handle 3 times, best broom I ever had, they just don't make them like that any more.
