Belcrank jig

Please help me find the W-730 bellcrank jig or its dimensions, used for aileron actuation alignment, pages 23-8 and 23-9. I have looked everywhere I think it should be without luck.
Thanks.

Mine was in a bag also. Its semi triangle shape maybe 3" x 4" X 1" with a relief in one side to go around the bellcrank and a 1/4" hole that fits over the AN4 pivot bolt.
 
If you can't find it, I see two potential choices.

1. Call Jim Combs and see if if he still has his. It's probably a longshot, but worth the call. The next closest RV-10 is probably Wayne Gillispie in Portsmouth (he lives in Ashland). I don't think I have mine.

2. Order one from Vans and have it shipped priority mail. It should fit in the small flat rate box, so it should cost under $10 and you'll have it mid week.

Trust me, this won't be the last part you'll misplace. They always seem to reappear the moment after the replacement arrives.

Maybe this helps

If you can scale it correctly...

Thank you.

Will order from Vans. I assume one fits both sides since no mention of left/right?
Thanks for all the responses. I now know what it looks like at least.
