Hi, I've dropped my Stanley 220 block plane and the cam has broken. Doh! Does anyone know where I can get a replacement or maybe someone has a broken plane and doesn't need the cam? I don't have a 3D printer but I guess the time to create the design would be too much anyway. Happy to pay a reasonable price plus postage.

The spare part is listed here in the US for $1 but it's discontinued.

This is the bit I've broken.

Could it be brazed? Looks possible, obviously would damage the plating. This would be my first line of attack, if you can’t do it yourself, perhaps contact the local model engineering guys.
 
Ah, I don't know. I have brazed steel but don't have real skills in that direction. This is a more lightweight cast alloy. Can that be brazed? If so, I'll have a go.

You're right, it is ferrous. The way the metal was catching the light I'd thought it was a zinc type casting but clearly not. I'll have a try at brazing it over the weekend. Thanks for the help.
