I made a couple for my old ELR head - just got some alloy sheet (either 2 or 3mm, can't remember now?) and cut it out - filed it and got Griffs in bristol to weld it on - simples :wink:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

agreed it does not have to be a Finn from another head if your welder knows what he is doing he will have the material to do the job. the guy i use has been known to build it up with weld if there's not that much of the aluminium missing
