Lumsdep,Paul's photo  looks like it was 3d printed, so you might be able to get one made for you.

I doubt it. It’s a simple turning job. Hard to tell but it could be Acetal or Nylon? If I were making a replacement I’d use Ertalyte TX or perhaps one of the lubricated Nylons like Nyloil or Ertalon.

Lumsdep,
Do you have a piece of nylon to use?  I may have a piece about 31mm dia at the length you need, or even a piece of ptfe.
Let me know although I won’t be able to send anything until next week.

Thanks

Yes it turns relatively freely and isn't so tight it is bulging, it is made that shape.

Another quick question about the same nylon piece. When everything is bolted down is it still free to turn?

My plan is to get a piece of nylon or hdpe and turn it on my lathe. Probably make a test one out of wood first.

Turn one using your lathe.

I think it is just a nylon guide possibly bulged at the centre by being squeezed by the retaining bolt?
