[TheForge] Frying pan question.

Wed Aug 20 01:02:01 2003

Bob,
    I think I get them from the same guy.  I use 3/8 for the handle and it
seems to work okay.  Half inch seems to be a bit thick.  The half inch
handle I made had to be realy short so as not to overbalance the pan.
You can find mine at

It's about half way down the page
