Can you draw a pic or have an old pic?

I had one on a 366 but have no clue where I bought it. Seems like it was someone on TS.com. But...........

Inline Fabrication maybe?

PW has one on there site. It is called an Ergo handle. Doesn’t have 8-ball but nice change.

I don't have a picture, but the zig-zag reminds me of the lightening bolt, if that helps.

I have the same handle on my PW. I think the mans last name was Brown.

Is it similar to the one the factory puts on the metallic reloaders?

I think grunt is correct.

Don Brown made bunches of the handles. PW copied it but settled with Don. I believe Don is in a nursing home in poor health. He was always inventing something, several things for a PW and later for his Spolar.

Yes your right His name was Don Brown . If I remember correctly he was a farmer also. My handle was bent at 90 degree angles, very comfortable to use.

Can someone post a pic and measurements of one?

Is what Ponesness Warren shows as their ergo handle. Inline Fabrication makes a handle for many loaders, but does not specifically mention handles for Ponseness Warren.

I think this was the guys name; didn't know PW had copied it. Sorry to hear about his poor health!

Thanks all for chiming in- would love to see pictures if anyone has some to share.

.....and what is wrong with the PW ergo handle?

.....and what is wrong with the PW ergo handle?

I bought an "ergo" looking for more comfort and adjustability. I didn't find it in the ergo but I DID find what I wanted in their "shovel" handle:

​

With this handle the shaft can be rotated in the loader's cross shaft to point in different directions coming toward the use plus the handle itself, being bolted on instead of welded on, can also be rotated to provide the most comfortable wrist angle.

I think I bought my handle from Don but that was a long long time ago.

Thanks for Picture. Is the shaft 5/8" or 1/2"?

My 1974 PW 800B (converted to 800C). Came with ball handle (it would wear a blister in the palm of your hand). Next came the straight shaft shovel handle (not sure where I bought it). Been using the ergo shaft with shovel handle for many, many years - my favorite - not sure where I bought it - might have been Don Brown.
