    you will have fun with it and great for proofing a idea / design.

    since the original part was possibly pot metal (die cast zinc) it doesn't have a great tensile strength so depending on the density of a plastic print it might do but you can always take your design (proof of concept) and upload to Shapeways and print in stainless steel though there are some size limits.
