Just got a response from Electroswitch concerning the original Stackpole switch used in TWs. Electroswitch bought Stackpole years ago. The original Stackpole switch used in TWs is part # 73-1037. The Electroswitch version is part# C4D0206N-4029.
Mouser has 'em for $15.32 a pop.

Those same switches back in june 06 were $9.85 or close as I recall. They have went up $6+ in the last 6 months. If you do a search for Electroswitch you'll find a tread from months ago that talks about the switch and some alternatives that are Electroswitches but just a little different.

You only need a 3 pos switch and you are actually paying for a switch with more contacts on it than you are really going to use. If you want the exact same switch that Ken used then that's the way to go. If you want to save a little money you can get a switch that looks the same as Kens but only has the contacts you need.
