I made my own arm out of aluminium tubing from B and Q added some studding and pot riveted them on for the reflector end, squashed the other end bent them over ad drilled hole to bolt on to the scalar plate.
All a bit heath robinson but it worked very well indeed. Not got the dish now I went over to a Channel Master 1.8. Some pictures attached.

scopus thanks for photos i had considered using the c band feed but would prefer using an alloy plate maybe qp reflectors will be kind enough to give me the dimensions to make the plate would be no problem but can't remember how the three u bolts attaches to the arms a picture of the original plate would help i did have one with previous precision dish and a polar mount i am also trying to source if possible but i have adapted a heavy duty mount to fit but as yet not been able to get the tracking right
