"I can FIX that!"

This was my solution to a pot metal garage T-handle that disintegrated into pieces.

Certainly cheaper than digging out an old Ford square drive inside doorhandle for the job from the parts bins, eye guess.
 
So, THAT'S where the handle to my tap and die set went!
 
I'd probably use the same solution.
 
fabulous! Coincidentally this week I put the Viva up on jacks - only to find that the garage door wouldn't close. Moved it ahead a few inches and still wouldn't. Realized that if I removed the inner garage handle the door would just close. Sooooo

Fortunately it still latches and and the PO had added a security bolt so other than that I can't open it from the outside - all good!
 
Way to tap into an available resource, a solution to die for. I'll be here all week, tip the servers, two drink minimum!
