AndyWarne:
Another solution for this is plumbers teflon tape wrapped around the threads.

That's what I was planning to use. Good to know it works.

Just a little update guys... I added the "extra pieces" I had and it worked like a champ. Those circular metal pieces worked like a champ!!!
Thanks guys!

I hadn't thought of this one. I used Loc-tite. However, to make sure, and as they were already mounted, I wrapped a little bit of cloth around the shaft, clamped on with plyers, and counter-screwed against the handle. It suddenly comes to mind that one might do just as well, or better, with a piece of rubber instead of the cloth.

I use one of these rubber strap wrenches every time I take a joystick ball/bat top on or off, works great no harm to the ball/bat top
