Many thanks indeed, Fred! No hurry whatsoever on my end. You and this whole site has been very helpful and educational for me and a great asset to my reel tinkering adventures although my studies here seem to result in a constant stream of reel-sized ebay packages...

Maybe I applied too much side force on that part from Mike's. I'd be more careful if I have to use another one.  I think cast or machined nylon would be a superior material but the printed part is better than nothing.

Bail looks correct.

Here is a handle assembly for your 1000C.

$15 + $3 shipping.

If this would work, just PM your mailing information to include your full name and address.

Best,

Fred

I have a GS1 that needs a new handle and I think this may fit actually, do you have any more of these?
