I never felt like it was going to snap, it was just the fact that I felt there was too much pressure on the screws supplied that attach the rubber cased handle. So I put a steel rod through the middle of it just to be safe.

I did that the other day, I just simply bent it back up again.

A local metal worker to me has said to bring the unit down and he will make a better handle for it for £30.00 which I will probably do.

My turn to hijack the convo now... I'm looking at the DF50 (was also looking at a cheapie on ebay) as I'm going to be doing phone covers would this be a good choice or anybody with another suggestion
