The telescoping mop handle is fixed by friction, adjusted by a twisting
knurl at the joint. I picked mine up at a garage sale for 4 bits, but I've
seen them at hardware stores and super markets - you know the kind with a
sponge mop and a squeegee at the end. You will have to take a hack saw to
it to cut it to a convenient length. -
