Cheers

Your man with the very big Aveling at Dingles has fabricated his. Saying that his are probably the same diameter as your boiler.

Haha I was tempted to fab mine but thought I would just ask first

At least you already have 1 to copy off, only differences should be the recessed bit that goes into the cylinder.

Do you need a crank aswel?

Try Derek Webb at Tickhill , South Yorkshire. He had some cast as the originals were broken during the firebox replacement about 20 years ago.
'Chief Polisher' here on TT may be able to help you with some contact details.
Best wishes with your new project Tom.

I believe James Ragsdale is on the case for you Tom.
