Oh, so the plastic part is not available? Here"s the thing Peter.If you get me a good part (ie: not broken) -- or heck, I could probably glue a broken part back together -- I could bring out my wax pot, wax, silicon rubber and other assorted junk and probably make some wax parts, which could be mailed to a caster, and the parts would cost...well, frankly, I can"t remember how much.But not much. They would probably be out of silicon bronze.It"s been 10 years since I did this, but it"s not the most difficult thing in the world.Anyway, point being is that it might be worth a test to see what happens.I know where all my casting supplies are (under the house) and I wouldn"t mind giving it a shot. Just a thought...Email me and I"ll give you my address if you want to try something. Cheers, Fred
