Is this Snap-On driver saveable?

[bonneyman]

I grabbed this S-O ratcheting screwdriver in a tool lot. Some ***** put a pair of pliers on it in use and cracked the handle. I figured I would cut the handle off with a dremel and reuse the guts in a project.
But then I thought: with all you S-O fans out there, maybe one of you has a good enough relationship with your local dealer that they would warranty this for you. The thing sells for over $60 new. Maybe it's salvageable? You guys tell me.

Send it back to Snap-On with no explination and I bet they send you a brand new one

Snap On doesn't have the same kind of rock solid warranty that Bonney has..................I think yer stuck with it.

Rob.......who actually loves Bonney Tools very much.

just fill the crack with JB weld and use it. Otherwise PM me on shipping directions to my house for me to have it!

they still make it, can you buy the replacement part?

its the handle that is busted and on those its a different kind of handle.

Oh, I just thought of a totally wild way to fix this thing!
I kinda thought maybe a new S-O handle could be put on, but, not knowing how it's attached, I wasn't sure. But the J-B weld idea is a good one -, but good!
Thanks all!

is it missing the cap on the end of it too? you might be screwed if you can't get a new cap for it.

get out the plastic welder or a ****** old soldering iron and make the repair. don't cut up a fairly good looking tool that still functions
