   You need a new pin not a new box! who told you it was a box? the pin is about 80p and takes around 5 mins to change

   Speaking of which,mine fell out today,but im going to make my own tomoz,and make it longer,drill a hole either side,and stick cotter pins in to prevent it happening again.

   I used the end of a chuck key,but made it a bit longer than the original so i could drill a hole either side,and stick some cotter pins in,so it wont drop out again.
