looks like peeps are struggling to source Oz centre caps (that fit) for less than £30 a piece.

You could make a few quid here mate !!

(going by the gear you have been making for Project Zig !!)

Just a thought

Thanks for the tip

I probably could make them but they'd have to be turned from a quite large diameter bar so lots of waste, materials cost would probably be disproportionately high (they'd have been cast originally, with minimal wastage).
That said, if someone can get me a decent set of dimensions or lend me a spare to work from I'll see what I can do
We do actually have two muffle furnaces at work now so in theory I could melt alloy scrap and cast to a new mould... but I'd still need an old one to work from.

Ill post one to you if you want, or you can pick it up from Suffolk during the week or Kent on the weekends!

Sounds like a plan! Alternatively, if you can do me a fully-dimensioned drawing that'd be a start.
