<DIV>The mops/rakes/brooms I looked at were all either seamed steel
tube, wood, or plastic handled. Maybe I went to the wrong Wally
World...who knows. </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, I got enough alum tubing from the website to make header
extensions for the rest of my life (3 feet x2 pieces), for about 12
bucks or so shipped. They have lots of other nifty raw materials listed
too, and will sell in small quantities suitable to our needs, which
is what I liked most.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Factor in that it came right to my door, which has to count
for something, with the price of gas and all. Driving all over and
spending $6-$8 in gas, in order to spend $5 on some widget I then have
to modify, just doesn't have the appeal it once did to
me. ;-) </DIV>

<DIV>Call me crazy.</DIV>

<DIV>Gotta buy the mop. Actually just about any kind of rake or broom
will probablyhave a thin walled ally handle that can be
used. Cheapo Depot also has collapsible extensions for paint
rollers that work well in this application</DIV>

<DIV>I recently bought some 'header extension' aluminum tubing
from these guys. Couldn't find any mop handles made of aluminum at
Wally World (or anywhere else), so I went here. They specialize in
small quantities. Give them a try. Their service was great.</DIV>
