Hi Isabelle,
We brought a couple of unmounted tweezers to the machine shop and ground
them to fit the mount. If you remove the old (I assume bent) tweezers
with you and the mount any competent machinist should be able to get it
to fit. Even cheaper (if you are adventurous) is to buy a Dremel tool
with the appropriate bits and do it yourself.
