Treadle for Pearl Old Style

How difficult would it be to find a replacement treadle and rod for an Old Style Pearl? I did a quick search and it didn’t seem very likely… I’ve found a press I’m interested in purchasing, but it is missing this part.

finding a original be nice, hard to come by.
make your own priceless.
some square tube, threaded rod, some ends to thread on rod, and tube to cover threaded rod and make pivot points.

Thanks, ToddPressTime! I appreciate the nudge to be resourceful rather than focusing on finding the original parts. If all works out I’d love to chat more to get details on how to rig something like this up.

I have some Pearl treadles
