If you have a body available to copy and don't mind taking the wire out, chuck the plug into the head and tail stock of lathe. Put into the Vega groove a piece of plexi w/ paper on. Grind down a pencil to fit into the stylus holder. Make pencil touch paper on plexi. Next remove your cut bit from the holder. Make a phoney cutter look alike out of a dowel. Grind a soft point on it. Install in holder and lightly run wood bit facsimile along plug body and the pencil touching the paper on plexi will trace the exact outline. Cut on bandsaw and sand down to outline. Good Luck.
