SDS-V T-Handle Nut Solution

2014-04-05 by <mr_adams_beard@...>

While I suppose I'm lucky enough to have a complete set of t-handle nuts in decent condition for my SDS-V, like everyone else I'm always on the lookout for spares and bits & pieces.

After recently being told I could have new nuts made to my specification provided I ordered 5000 of them, I came across an inexpensive and readily available solution that anyone comfortable using tools can make.

Modified from a economy-priced standard drum key, a little bit of drilling followed by some tapping/threading and you'll have perfectly acceptable replacements for the original part.

I've added some pictures to the gallery. Take a look
