I need a small piece of aluminium turned.

The headstock stand I have doesn't fit the Striple. It does however have a removable head/bolt bit. Any chance someone could whip up one of these to the dimensions (in mm of course)?

Also, I don't have any scraps of aluminium. Where is it best to pick it up from? And what's fair payment for it?
