Does anyone have a lead on a crane lock for a model 15?

Try Numerich or call Dan Wesson in Norwich, NY.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

One way to offset that shipping cost is to buy more stuff. The last order I made with DW Norwich was several years ago. I've already used one cylinder stop, three spring kits, and four grip screws. I still have two small frame spring kits, an extra 15-2 cylinder stop, and six grip screws in both sizes, it all shipped in one package for the basic shipping cost.
Stuff I need (or I will need for a DWF Brother).
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I made a few last month. I had one that was pretty worn in one of my shooters.
I took a piece (3" or so) of .055 steel music wire (hobby shop stuff, $1.50 for 3 feet)). Heated it and bent it around the right sized drill bit butt end (mic the crane for size). I tapped it lightly while hot with a very small hammer to get the right radius. Snipped and filed the ends for length. Hold it in a small vise for this. Works fine and the fit is snug. We'll see how long it lasts.
It's a 10 minute job.
