I have 1 handle only for all of mine.  I am clueless on the others.

When I bought my USA made cast iron breaker-spinner set, The rivet head forming bit anvils included were the current style Oregon ones which fit but were too long for the chain to align with the guide wheels. I could have cut the anvils shorter but opted to buy the new correct anvil set from Equipatron.

Both my supplied "take up" handles were in like new shape. In fact both the spinner and breaker appeared to be unused except for the anvils and punches which were well used and for the current model Oregon Breaker/spinner set.

There's a earlier Oregon Spinner/breaker than mine but I don't know much about them. Mine are made in Buffalo, NY by Herr and dated from the 60's to the early 90's. After that the Oregon spinner/breakers were made in Italy and there's the aluminum ones and the welded ones.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
Be all that you can be . . .
