Someone with a 3D printer likely could make more as one-offs.  Someone
with a sheet-metal shop could probably put together a workable metal
substitute.

As for why?  Because I really really need to get rid of stuff, and it's
to the point where some of even the retrocomputing hobby stuff isn't
making the cut to keep.  Without someone to give them to, well, the
alternative is....

Fortunately all around, there are now two someones, at least, to give
them to. :-)  (I find it a lot easier to let go of things when they're
going to someone who'll use them.)

Okay.  I'm unlikely to be doing much more than glancing at email this
weekend (I expect other things to be taking up my time), but once the
weekend's over I can see about getting them packed up and sent off.
