I'll try one last time!
Look at the illustration I posted in post #7 and tell me the number of the part you're looking for.
If you do that, 1) I'll tell you what its called, 2) I'll give you the part number, and 3) I'll tell you if any are still available and if so, who has them.
If you don't want to do that, then I can't help you!

I can upload a picture if that would help

I'm only guessing here but isn't it kind of hard to weld rubber?

Well, ya never clarified what the part is and we still don't know what the heck yer talking about.

The coil spring retaining strap & hardware is the best I can decipher in Klingon... or is that Bajoran?

Brushing up on my Klingon, I "think" he was talking about the shock mount stud (18033).

I didn't know dictionaries were authored. Merriam Webster sure has a lot of time on her hands. Any one ever see a pic of that woman? I've Googled and I guess she don't like to get her pic taken nor published.

This is the greatest thread of all time. Thanks for the signature quote and for wasting everyone's time on some rubber that doesn't exist. You are going to do fine here on FTE.

There should be a hall of fame for threads like this. Keep up the good work, I'm sure theres a comedy writer out there looking for fresh material.
