Okay, Okay. Laugh it up.  Get it out of your system.  Luckily it was just one of the wire-rods.  I put em back together w/ epoxy putty, but I'd prefer to get a new wire-rod.  Anybody know where I can find a new wire-rod For a F1 Shooting Chrony Chronograph?

Some hardware and some model shops have various types of metal rods and small diameter tubing.

Might be cheaper to get what you need there vs. buying from mfr + $ for S+H.

Might want to buy some extra, just in case.  FWIW, you're not the first person to do this.  I know that for a fact.

Buy some bamboo skewers and trim to length. They are cheap and come in packs of 25-50.

I had a Chrony for a while and figured this out the hard way.

Use coat hanger wire to hold the sky screens.  When hit you won't cause damage to the F1 itself.  Don't ask me how I know...
