Went out to do a little work in the shop (garage) and when I was tightening the quill feed handle, the black part came loose...

Looks like it was just glued on, but I'm not sure what kind of glue to use to repair it...

Suggestions?

I would try to drill it out a little, then use two part epoxy or JB Weld. I don't think just gluing it will hold. You could order one from shopsmith $6.13 with $6.99 shipping.

I got the new fully adjustable quill handle and don't need the old one that you need. I'll let you have for the shipping cost if you want it. I'm in zip code 71854
