I was thinking the same things. When I was mocking it up, the handle looked to be an ok length. Once I got everything epoxied in place I realized that the handle was a bit long. Oh well, so it goes.

Pouring pewter is next on my list of DIY adventures to tackle.

Many thanks to all for the kind words and helpful advice.
