I could pull over a Snap-On truck and buy one, order one from Snap On, or make one.<\/p>\n<p>I made one.<\/p>\n<p>First I got a length of mild steel rod and pounded it into a square (the hole the original lever fit in was square shaped).<\/p>\n<p>Next I bent it to an &#8220;L&#8221;, pounded it more till the end was wider (to make it a bit more comfy for my thumb) and filed it smooth.<\/p>\n<p>I cut it to rough length and filed and pounded some more. As I got farther from steel rod salvaged from old filing cabinet and closer to ratchet lever, pounding with a big hammer turned into tapping with a small one.<\/p>\n<p>For a makeshift anvil I used a block of hardened steel I found in a machine shop dumpster.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/industrialglenn.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/ratchlever1.jpg\" rel=\"shadowbox[sbpost-210];player=img;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-211\" title=\"ratchlever1\" src=\"http:\/\/industrialglenn.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/ratchlever1.jpg\" alt=\"ratchlever1\" width=\"461\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"http:\/\/industrialglenn.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/ratchlever1.jpg 576w, http:\/\/industrialglenn.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/ratchlever1-300x250.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The original lever was held in with a screw. The hole for the screw was too close in diameter to the hole for the lever itself for me to drill by hand. I know if I tried I&#8217;d end up coming partway out the side of the lever instead of just the bottom so I made the base of my lever a bit bigger and just tapped it in with a hammer. It will hold up under use but its not so tight that I wont be able to get it out with a pair of pliers.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the ratchet and some of the files I used.
