[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 425488, member: 19781"] I think I was in the same place as you not too long ago... I got lucky and found an old alumacraft eye ring in an aluminum scrap yard. Before then I had plans to make my own out of 2 pieces of 3/16 steel cut into the right shape and then bent and welded around the eye. Cut 2 pieces and then bend them till you get a nice tight fit. Then take to a welder and have him join them around the ring: [img]https://i1166.photobucket.com/albums/q602/gumphaugh/bow%20eye_zpse6rvwams.jpg[/img] a little work with a grinder and you could make a very good copy of the manufacturers ring....
