Yes can't see why not - presumably it's just a bit more fiddler



Could be, but may be easier to source......

Just a thought.

Yes agree

Although getting two brass or stainless rods at a certain diameter cut to length then having both ends threaded using a die

4 stainless acorn nuts - one glued at one end of each won't be a huge job

Top tip Stewart.
I have started to get used to them and they do look rather good, and very retro/trad.
The perspex on mine is cracked, so I have the option of a new pair of deflectors or the whole shabang.
Are they still produced by Life's, or are you setting yourself up in production? idea
