    Older Compur Cable Release Recepter?

    These seem to be somewhat fragile on older Compur shutters. I have no less than 3 Compur shutters with missing cable release receptors. They were originally " swedged" at the base to hold them in place, and I suppose a good sharp fall must dislodge them. 1 is Compound, one is #2, and one is everyday #1.

    Does anyone know of a source for replacements. OR Can anyone guide me to a sou rce for the unique wedge shaped tap that would be required if I was to make my o wn?

    Thanks and Happy New Year to all.
