If you have access to the original mechanical drawings, you could get
them put into Solidworks and there are tons of small CNC shops that can
make you the part in metal, or you can get a part done in
stereolithography if you want plastic, they have various types of resins
that are nearly as strong as ABS

Hi,
Has anybody experience and instructions how to replace aging and breaking plastic parts.
I would prefer replacement with metal parts not to repeat the problem later.
The problem is in parts like sledges etc. but not in running mechanics.
Any tools, methods etc. recommendations are welcome.
Unfortunately my experience is more on the electronics side.
I would see the replacement work as a nice hobby but I need the skills and tools first.
