Perhaps I should check with Linda to carry on the tradition, as Dick did for his friend who passed on. Failing that, you'll have to find a used or unused one.

I have the machining equipment at hand and am actively looking for some projects to fill in some unwelcome free time. Barring the possibility of someone providing me a complete unit that I could reverse engineer, a set of rough drawings or better, high-rez digital photos of all the components in an exploded state with a reference for size (like a quarter in each picture) would allow me to get it all specified and into production. Any takers? ]
