I think there are a few other posts on the subject, but I cannot find them... the original authors may reply to your post.

actually believe it or not i got one off gerry below on cleggan pier a few years back and i still have it but just find it too big for the very small competion flats,,,the one i had was stainless slim rod and a nice curve at the top,,,,,,,,put it in my jacketpocket one night and the thing slipped out through a rip in the jacket

i like this idea

some times the most simplest ideas are the best,im gona try and make one

i make mine out of a paint bucket handle too big for flats ,ideal for dogs ect to make the handle just double it up and wrap it in duct tape
