I'm in need of a new tiller. My 30 year old teak tiller broke yesterday. Any suggestions where I can buy one? What about the holes for the tiller extension receptacle? Is there a jig to drill the whole for a tiller extension receptacle?

Re: Tiller
If you have some basic wood working skills you ought to be able to fabricate a new one without much difficulty. Teak is fairly easy to find. And then you can shape it to your liking.
