Anderson composite shaft.
Be sure to get the tall man model if you are tall.
The extra height provides better pendulum action, and allows you to sweep a larger arc covering more ground on each swing.
I prefer composite, as it is far less likely to seize than aluminum, and you avoid galvanic action caused two dissimilar metals touching each other.
The only draw back is that it can be a little tippy, so I also recommend a guard to protect the knobs, also made by Anderson.
I recommend purchase rather than home building as theese accessories hold their value, if you later sell, and it is easier to sell
than a home made one as the buyer knows that the holes are properly spaced and drilled, without having to inspect it.
Send me a PM if you have any questions, or need additional information.
