Wyatt's was offering one a few yrs ago, but you would have to call and see if they are still available. They were made in GB and were of good quality.

Luke, Which style 'Q' do you have? The 1st models like the one depicted below generally had a plain flat key. The 2nd & 3rd used the filagree style key and can be identified by the black lacquer base and the governor comes off the side plate rather than the base. I have a repro fancy/filagree key if you don't have any luck finding an original. BTW, ignore the dust. I fired the maid........... Bill My model 'QC'  |

I have a repro key on this one, but want an original for it. This one is the post-1901 version with a black base. Luke W.

Ok Luke, Good luck!
I don't how one can tell tell repros from the originals as I've matched up the one I have to one that I know is original. They were cast metal and after a few years look as groady as an original.
