Man sorry to hear that Mike, my little finger on my left hand has no middle joint left. I'm left handed and since it's large at that joint it gets in the way when I write. I can move it almost 90° side to side but I can still grip with it. The doctor has said I might be better off if they remove it, I told him I came with it and plan to leave with it too. I wish I could help with the printer but I'm tech deprived.

I wonder if a library could take the file send by email and make the part? Then send it by mail to you? Maybe you pay shipping or nothing.

searched business online and there are a lot:

But check out this:

They may help and maybe cost free? Have to check with them.

Wonder if one of the local Tech colleges might take on your project as an assignment for one of their classes......

Best of luck in finding what you need.
