plastic flanges--not elbows

[Brian Doepke]

Sorry about the confusion.  Not plastic elbows, I have replaced many of
those.

My question is about the flange that holds the hammer to the rail.  They are
plastic on a 1940ish Mason/Hamlin and while tightening them one of them
broke.

Are there any huge size differences with a replacement wooden flange?
