I remedied the situation of the shaft breaking by sliding a piece of thin walled stainless over the wood handle and taping it on in the middle of the wood handle with electrical tape. It is about 3 foot long. It is only in the middle of the handle, not the entire length. It has a pretty snug fit. You can stand on the thing and it will not break. It doesn't weight that much more either. I am sure aluminum will work just as good. Look for a snug fit over the wood shaft. Paul
