Stuart No 4 Steam Engine

As Mike said, it has to be annealed for a bend like that, but I would stick with the stainless. That handle necks down quite a bit and would be pretty weak in brass. Besides, the contrast between the brass and stainless looks better.

Not sure why yours broke. Maybe it got too hot in that necked down area.
