    Any idea where to handle for roller stand

    I've 5 rollers - roller stand (http://www.woodcraft.com/family.aspx?familyid=4346). Mine is older version. The handle is broken so I could not use it any longer. Any idea where to get a handle for it?

    you mean like this one (Your link just points to Woodcraft home page)?

    Looks like the little handle locking knob is a threaded 1/4-20 or 5/16-18 device, you can probably find them in the jig parts at Rockler (or Woodcraft).


    You can also find these at your local hardware (ACE) store in the hardware parts bins but they tend to be expensive.

          Don't just say no to kickback.

            It may be worth contacting Woodcraft customer service first, explaining that the knob broke off the roller stand, and asking nicely about a replacement. If they balk or try to nick you ten bucks, you can ask if part xxx fits, and then you've always got the option of buying one.

              Thanks guys. Woodcraft said "no part" so I did DIY using rockler knob, 5/16" bolt and 5/16" nut. About $4 total cost. (the nut was 7 cents at HD!)
