David, Interesting thought re machining the part. It had not occurred to me. I am going to disassemble the left lock and examine the stirrup under a microscope , if I can get my hands on one. Given what I think I know about procedures in the late 1800s, I have trouble believing that the part could be reliably machined in one piece, but a careful look at the junctures between the pins and the plate may offer a clue. I'll let you know. Thanks for the quick response. Dick
