I suppose I should measure the parts with digital calipers and see if we can get these parts 3d printed. Not sure if the pin can be replaced with a plastic one, or ever "copper PLA" - it might work for a while but I suspect it won't be strong enough to last. Sadly the pin is also two sizes would have been so much easier if it didn't have a large and thin part.
