You might have to adjust that for inflation however! :lol:

The allen screws and handle rotation seemed to work perfectly, at least as far as I can tell. If the fix doesn't hold permanently, I will go to plan B, then C, etc. I really appreciate you guys teaching an old dog new tricks. Thanks for all your help. KOPAP. Billy
