Default Frister and Rossmann HC with broken thread take up lever

I was cleaning on the Fand R I brought back from TX trip and found the take up lever was broken. I suspect this when the guy carrying it up to counter and the lid slipped. So what do. I had a broken slide plate from a machine that had been replace with a new one. Took the broken lever as a pattern got out the dremel with lots of cut off wheels and cut a new lever out. Then took the grinding wheel and did the final shaping. It fits perfectly and works fine. Now that is fits will have to polish all the grinding marks out and make it shine. This F&R is a clone of the Singer 12 and the shuttle are almost identical.
