Here’s to all the machinist out there, looks like I’m out $90 bucks for the handle but net ahead $300 for service.

Sorry to hear your troubles. I did not use the bolt & nut technique. I put just the handle on a vise, I drilled the hole using 9/64 bit and counter sunk it. Then fasten it with an 8x1-1/4" metal screw.
