One of our shower hoses has an expensive white porcelain handle that keeps breaking when the hose is dropped. The porcelain handle is a tube, about 100mm (4") long and 32mm (1 1/4") diameter, with a through hole about 19mm (3/4") in diameter. I want to turn a new one. What's a good choice of plastic that is:
(1) pearly white
(2) impact resistant
(3) turns well (hss or aluminium inserts) and finishes well (hard shiny surface if possible)
(4) resistant to soap, water, bleach, chlorine
(5) fairly scratch resistant
(6) not real expensive
Is white ABS a good choice? I don't know anything about plastic...
