You should try making them, they are pretty easy, just some brass bits from a model shop, some ink and some epoxy. There's a tutorial on BB somewhere, otherwise you could try over on BB (I've none left)

Cheers,

... and here we have:

A few sets of each of these - the ones on the left have 4 small brass tubes rather than solid pins, otherwise the same.

Current batch have 5 brass tubes rather than alloy. I have a few pairs of these.

Infill on this batch is dark grey (charcoal grey).

If you want to make your own. I have a tip that can help.

Go to the pound shop and get a £1 car foot pump. Open it up and reverse the valves and you now have a very cheap vacuum pump that works on the reverse stroke so you can adjust by spring tension . I did put something over on BB years ago about it but it blocked from work so I cannot dig it out. It should be easy to find though and my username is same as here.
