Default Torque Tube Bushings

I've been in contact with a fellow in NC who took a NOS insulator I sent him and he made a mold of it and created several samples which he sent to me and another forum member. They look great and appear to be better than the original. I've been trying to arrange to have him reproduce 20-30 pieces to begin with, but he seem to be having a problem finding someone to make the metal insert that holds the bearing. I've had several conversations with him but we haven't gotten beyond the sample stage. I'll try and see if he's still interested in proceeding and will let everyone know how it works out.
Maybe we'll all get lucky and find they're available in the new Ames Catalog.
