Hi Bob
Even with 3d printing, you'd need to do some sanding and shaping to make it look as
clean as the original. I still think casing one is the best option. If the mold is right,
it will even match the surface.

Is it for a 1/4 inch shaft?

Yes, it's a standard 1/4" shaft. Might try and get one 3D printed if
I
can figure out how to draw it.
