Pulltoeject Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 No idea of the cost, but you could look up metal 3d printing. Would definitely solve that problem in the long run Quote

Pulltoeject Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Hmmm, I've seen some tutorials on how to cast parts in metal. But, if youu are kind of handy with tools you could maybe make one out of a piece of metal. I like working with tough materials, so if You could send me a copy of your part I could probably replicate it. Quote
