It is pretty easy to reattach a MBH to the bowl
@Izzygrillz . Just need two small SS bolts, washers and nuts. First, make sure the handle flanges are totally flat and remove all the rust from both the bowl and the flanges. Then drill the holes in the MBH flanges. Once those holes are drilled, hold the handle against the bowl and mark where the holes need to be drilled. Drill the holes in the bowl and then attach with the SS hardware, This one has been reattached for about 2 years now and I think it is as strong as when welded.
