surplus source for MRA connectors?

[jim s]

I was wondering it a jigsaw session or delron machine could solve the 
shell problem.  I saw the V.35 connectors, and figured out the pins.

I wonder how they do the detents inside the shells to retain the pins if 
one were machining it yourself with an NC plastic machine of some sort.
