I should ask this guy how many he has and see if he will give a volume discount LOL

Just make sure to take the old one with you to ensure you get the proper size.

Holy sh*t batman! I realize it's like a hen's tooth to find new, but I could retire if I could find buyers that would pay that sort of green.


Speaking of that.....look at what I found.

How many ya got? I broke mine during install; it's not that bad hooking your finger over the top of the plate.

Why isn't the handle part getting repopped?

 

[rfpowerdude]

Seems a repop handle could make some money...

3D print them b*tches!!!!

 

[69hurstolds]

My luck I'd 3D print them out of paper mache. 🙁

Ya, not sure if there's a material that would be flexible enough to use as one of these. Printable material that has some "spring/durometer" to it...

 

[fleming442]

I haven't actually felt a 3D printed part in my hand; most look to be of an ABS/Nylon type from the pics I've seen which would be perfect for these.

The stuff I have seen (and held) is hard plastic, but by now, materials science has probably progressed to include different hardness materials...
