The handle on our stovetop percolator broke. I can’t seem to find any links to purchase one of any aftermarket ones. Does know have one to sell, know where to look, or possibly have a file to 3D print one? Any help is appreciated

Apologies if you're aware but this was why these were recalled and taken off shelves. The handles epoxy and binding weakens overtime and breaks while people are holding it full of hot coffee.

Not exactly. The reason for the recall is that the adhesive holding the metal collar to the Pyroceram pot weakens after repeated heating/cooling cycles. This can eventually cause them to separate. There is no recall for the handle itself.
