Quoted from mcbPalisade:

I would really like to know what a stock "Spring Steel Finger" on the HOMER bar (is that Moe's ? - ) looks like.
I imagine that these pictures show a stock one, although the bottom edge is jagged and I assume something has broken off. The finger is 0.25" wide.
Check out that little "bar" on the end - I assume this helped hold the flyaway targets up once you knock them. Talk about a manufacturing feat! I don't know how to reproduce that.
If someone could post a picture of a stock one I'd appreciate it. I've ordered a roll of 0.015 shim steel to reproduce a bunch and I can send you some if I can figure out what they look like.

Those are a hack, not on the original board/switches for Speak Easy or Grand Slam. The switches can be finicky and require adjustment from time to time.

Check with Todd Tuckey, I sold him a bunch of these switches last year. He might have some spare.
