    Hi, I'm hoping someone will recognize this piece. My neighbour borrowed our pressure washer, and when she returned it, said that she had found this on the ground, near were she was working. I have NO idea what it is. Does anyone recognize it? It's 1 1/4" long (just over 3cms). Any help is...

    Fixing broken cap on step

    Gentlemen, Thank you for your help and patience. I have one more question, before I decide what course to take. If I go the route of replacing the entire cap, is there a way of drilling the anchor holes that will 'probably' NOT result in cracking it again? If so, I will query...
