Default Servo winch spool

Who else makes servo winch spools out of alloy, I really want one of these,
https://lockeduprc.3dcartstores.com/...5T-_p_285.html
but can't get one in Australia due to an unreliable local supplier, what else are people running, or would someone be prepared to order me one of the locked up ones and forward it to me.

I don't really have room for the servo horn and sewing bobbin on this build as it's in the back of my wraith.

Believe me, if I didn't have a brand new TZI servo winch I would be looking at these, but I would more than likely go with the beefy winch from TZI.

on some of my trucks ive used 2 of the big round hitec servo horns that come with their servos with a longer screw and a spacer between them. you can dremel them down in size if needed. works pretty good.

How do you set up the bobbin to grip the servo spline
