OK, in my latest bout of insanity, I am back to thinking about getting a Tuckaway handle on a New short or long comb. My understanding is that the handle neck is slightly wider than the recessed are on the base plate.
Aside from the suggestion to drill it out a little (which would both change the baseplate/be irreversible and also would be a massive disaster as I struggle with anything more complicated than hanging pictures on a wall!), the other thing I was thinking of was to have a narrow washer/nut and have the wider handle neck press on that.
Has anyone done this? Would this work, or am I simply nuts? Would the nut/washer damage the handle or baseplate at all? I'm not sure if metal or rubber would work better (I suspect metal, as rubber would compress).
