    Has anyone of you made their own cup leather for the head? I have 2 Wilcox-Crittenden heads model skipper. Both need a new cup leather which they sell for about $34 each. I don't want to pay that much. I have leather and want to make a new seal myself. Any advise? Maybe someone has a picture or exact measurements of the original part? Are there cheaper cup leathers for sale somewhere that fit this head?
