Telescope handle

In a complete rip off of Kunama's recent post of his design of a handle I took a wander round Bunnings today and this is what I came up with. Most of the items are fairly obvious and 1/4 inch stud bar holds the whole thing together and the ferrules at each end of the spring are the sort of thing you put on chair legs to stop them screeching. The beauty of the spring handle is that you don't even need to be able to measure very well as the spring compresses to whatever length you wish. (within reason)
The only tools required were a junior hacksaw, screwdriver and spanner.
