Tom, my GF was setting up to manufacture these back in the early Spring but she has been battling cancer and started going thru Chemo soon-after she started prototyping them. It appears she is winning the battle but getting this project going again is probably low on the priority list at this time. I'm sure it will happen in the future but just don't have a timeline. Don Lang was the one having a family member manufacture them before, however they are no longer able to make them. I know you are wanting some now but unless someone has recently starting making them, to my knowledge there are not any commercially ones available at this time.

Tom: If I remember correctly, Gene's wife made some for his Torpedo using anti-tarnish cloth. Maybe Gene has patterns? I have made some myself using the same material. Maybe not the prettiest, but effective.
