JFranklin Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 If not this might be a perfect application for 3D printing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dl456 Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 Thanks JFranklin, Several ways to approach this project. Just checking to see if it had already been done. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I would recast in bronze using original and machine to finish. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dl456 Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 ak I have the original die cast glued back together for a pattern if others are needed. If I only need two, I think machined from aluminum may be the way to go. Very few of these retainers could have survived. I posted thinking this project had probably been done.
