  Sorry it did not look right for you.  Yes, the unit is a bit coarsely cast.

  Classic Tin does have some good reasonably priced repro parts and I purchased
an eccentric crank handle.  I could have carved one from a chunk of lead or pot-metal,
but I don't mind paying a business like this one to provide one for me.  Helps to
keep them in business. 

Good Luck,
Wayne
 

For the record, you can see that reproduction on here in my updated Weeden #20 update YouTube.  It's not like I am going to throw it away, never know when I might need to use it - since it is better than nothing.  The other reproduction I got from David Roenigk (and now installed on my #3) is the proper style but I think it was a bad pour.  Anyways, I'm hoping for a original one :-)
