I have this hose reel (northerntool.com)and can't find parts for it. My handle has broken, as it was cheap cast chinesium it appears.

The handle seems tricky to make, but I thought I'd toss it to the machinists to see if it's something that can be done, either: - in wood - via traditional machining - via 3-d printing - other?

If it were mine I'd get a flat piece of steel and a pipe and weld that shit up. You could cut and shape it with a grinder and weld the pipe on one end. You could probably find the stuff to do it in the free bin at a metal yard.
