ModeratorI guess the subject says it all…
Pardon the brevity. I’m typing this on my phone and I hate typing on my
phone.

ModeratorGot them, Rich, too small – the ones I’m looking for have a 1-3/8″ ID.
These 1″ ones have an ID of one inch making them nothing useful for anyone
with fingers bigger than a child’s. Otherwise known as finger breakers.

ParticipantNope. Best I could do was Seateak, 1″ hole. Best bet, find a small finger crew, rig up a piece of coat hanger. Did you try all of your fingers?
Maybe make one on a lathe, or get creative with hole saws.

ModeratorHi Rich,
Thanks again! I saw that and it’s the right hole, but it’s a last resort.
The hole is $4.00 but the shipping is $8.95. I’ll call them tomorrow to
see if I can get them to mail it for less.I figured I’d give it a try to see if anyone got rid of one of their doors
or drawers and kept the hole.Bob

ParticipantBob: I have a spare cabinet door that has the finger hole in it and I will give you the whole thing if you want to pay for shipping. It is about a 5″x12″ teak (veneer) door with the larger hole that came off an old Pearson 39 that I never could use or throw away. I will dig it out of the shop tomorrow if you are interested. However, I bet the finger hole won’t come out in one piece.

ModeratorThat door might be right (I’m sorry, I don’t know your first name cstewart,
or if I do or did I don’t remember it). If you look at the outer diameter
of the piece that’s in the hole, it should be 1-3/8″. If it’s smaller than
that it won’t work. Believe it or not, I’ve gotten holes out of doors
before. They’re varnished in. A heat gun works.Thanks,
Bob

ParticipantO.K., here is what I have: it is a 1 5/8″ OD hole on a 6.5×19.25 teak ply board with a 1/2″ solid teak trim. Came off an old (’72) Pearson 39. Yours for shipping. I can cut the hole out and just send it. Not just the hole, but the 1″ around it. Tried to attach a picture, but it didn’t go. Give me an email address and I will send pic.

ModeratorHi Charlie,
. It sounds like the right thing. It would be less to
ship if you just ship the hole.Bob

ParticipantBob, that’s what I will do; cut out the hole and send just it. I agree with Rich, it shouldn’t cost anything to air-mail a hole. I will add about one inch of teak around it just for good measure. Better I do that than break it trying to get it out. I’ll let you do that. My e-address is sailoneeighty@gmail.com if you want to send me a shipping address.
Charlie
