I assume you're referring to me?
I consider myself something of a dust cap reproduction specialist.
Unfortunately, I've lost my lathe access for the time being because of the coronavirus shutting down the university. If you can find me a shop to use for free in the Boston area, please let me know and I'd be more than happy to make you a dust cap or two in return.
I could turn one of black delrin pretty easily.
