 Does anyone have one of these? Dawkes' website says they have them but have none left.

 Probably easier and maybe cheaper finding an old used B12 on eBay for a low price and taking both the trill keys from that.

 Thanks Chris - there has to be a repairer out there with the key I'm after.

 Someone ought to have a broken top joint in their parts bin or the keys from one.
 
 Probably best to replace both trill keys together due to the telescoping key barrels. Unless they're made and fitted really well, the lower trill key should be a good and wobble-free fit over the upper trill key barrel if you only replace only one of them, but that's not always the case.
