Hi Emory:
            I've been bending my own tail wheel wires for
years, from 1/16" spring wire. I'm assuming your flying 2+2
pattern planes.
            If you send me your address, I'll mail one out
to you.
           You know what they say, a picture is worth a
thousand words. And the actual part???????
            Gord
