[QUOTE="Polar Bear, post: 573675, member: 11109"] Gday all I recently purchased a SITO scoop from Sito and a matching carbon handle. I assume the receiver for the handle on the scoop is made incorrectly, warped from welding, or just plain the wrong size. I have measured the inside ID of the scoop and it is predominantly 37mm though in a couple of spots it's 39mm. My carbon handle from SITO is almost perfectly 38mm OD. To get it to fit I would have to shave off 1mm total or .5mm off all edges and the handle's thickness is 2mm so I don't think that is a good idea. Do any of you have this handle scoop setup and can point out what I'm doing wrong or confirm that what I'm seeing isn't made right?
