Default Mamiya 7ii darkslide crank

The key on the crank that turns the darkslide on my Mamiya 7ii is broken. IMO it's a bit of a design flaw on this otherwise excellent camera. I've searched the net and various auction sites for a replacement and drawn a blank so far. I know that some people have made /had made brass replacements but I don't have the equipment or skills. Any ideas?

First thought when I read the post was 'SRB filters'.

I've bought bits off of them before, but they also do small bespoke bits as well, if my memory at this time of night is functioning. ��

Thanks for that - I didn't think of them. I've contacted a guy in Italy who makes them to order. If he doesn't get back to me I'll try SRB after Christmas. Festive Greetings!
