Radiator Handle Swap

I apologize that I've been slacking on my posts lately!  But rest assured, progress is being made :)  I just have to find some time to sit down and get the photos loaded & posts written up!

Today I have a quick addition to the attic radiator post...
I can't believe I forgot the part about the valve/handle not working anymore!  It actually flew off at one point, and there was a little piece missing.
Handle is on top-left side of radiator

Mike tried to find a replacement piece at Lowe's, but ended up having to buy a whole new valve.  I don't love it, but it's not terrible!



In fact, I was actually a little happy about this! The attic radiator is the same as the one in the bathroom (I could tell from the fancy markings on it).

The bathroom radiator handle was pretty beat up & the wood was chipped.  It kept snagging on the towels when we put them on the radiator to warm them.

So, Mike took the attic handle and replaced the beat-up parts on the bathroom radiator handle.  It looks so much better, and no more snags to my towels!
