Don't bother, it isn't worth the trouble.
Email Pete Begle,(has lots of ads in the classifieds) or Dan Berger, also here. I'm sure they have a bucket of them & could mail your a couple for reasonable cost.
The ither option is just make them from line.
Many sailors have gotten tired of the bones bangin them in the teeth when sitting on the hull, && made them from line. My N5.7 is converted. I don't have a photo online, do a search, I copied someone else s good idea.
If you can't find it, I'll email a photo.
Just slide a piece of plastic tubing over the line to keep the "Loop" open. It works as good as a steel bone & doesn't crack your teeth. I had a couple of the 3:1 systems, so I can adjust on the fly, it works really well.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Edchris177 on May 22, 2014 - 06:23 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
