Trying to drill out the crappy metal on the attachment piece was a chore, but once done I epoxied the wooden handle in there, coat of marine varnish and now it's a beauty. I remember after buying the damn thing that I wished I'd bought the model with the longer handle so during the repair, I made sure the new wooden handle was longer than the original.

Good to know, gonna have to try out your solution to the problem.
Thanks,

I use an Eheim Sludge Extractor - it works great! Of course I've modified it a bit but it works well to remove any detritus.
