Edison C19 missing fretwork

Is there anyone that has reproduced the fretwork that runs around the top of the C19 diamond disk machine? I thought I remembered that someone had reproduced that a few years ago.
I have a C19 that has some of the fretwork missing around the top that I need to replace.

I ended up cutting my own replacement pieces out of mahogany veneer on my C-19. Here's a link to the restoration (see the 7th photo):

I still have the extra complete top pieces with the frieze that Carsten sent me. It's yours for the postage costs if you want it. PM me if you want it.

Give George Vollema a call. He has a few trashed C-19's and C-250's which are the same outside cabinet...
George will have it..

You can buy a repro C-19 or C-250 Grill from Gramps Treasures for $65. He has them on his web site.

Thanks everyone.
Tom at Gramps Treasures had the grills I need, they are the best I have seen.
And, George Vollema had the C19 fretwork I needed.
Thanks for the suggestions! My problem is solved!
