Hi All,  I'm not sure of the name of this part, but it holds the
foot pedals up on the Themodist exhauster assembly.  It's similar
in design to the [clock-spring steel] catch that's used to hold
a bottom board in place in an upright piano.

What I need to know are the dimensions of the piece so I can make
a replacement piece for an assembly I'm restoring.  (It was missing
when I received the assembly.)  A picture would be nice too... :-)

Thank you for any help.

Musically,
