Found: VTLA Lid Prop
Hey all. I moved recently, and somehow during the move, the movers bent the lid prop on the old VTLA. Pictured is what I need...but without out the bend of course.

That's no so bad. Why don't you just straighten what you have??

Re: Wanted: VTLA Lid Prop
I've thought about it, but my concern is that these early guys are so thin, that once compromised, it will never stay perfectly straight.JerryVan wrote: Thu Mar 10, 2022 12:34 pm That's no so bad. Why don't you just straighten what you have??

It doesn't look too bent, I bet it hasn't plastified. A careful reshaping should work fine... It doesn't look as having lost its strength!

It'll be fine. Just carefully bend it back straight.
