Thank you for the link, that was certainly cheap. That shape of roller is much better than the long one that followed my machine, much easier to adjust. Mine doesn't equals the shape of the stone roller anymore. I may customize it, cutting away half but the bearing needs to be replaced as well. I will order the one you have but is the hole tapered as on Italian machines (like on mine Alpha SM, FAV etc.) looks like you got a gap there, material thickness different maybe?

The foot is held in place with a tapered pin same as the FAV and Fortuna machines. The 1mm washer was needed to allow the sliding lock in thing to position better for holding and angle adjustments.
