Can help some:
At a local fabric store I found the elastic cord.
Brand: Stretchtight
Round Cord Elastic
3960 appears to be a product number on the package
A lifetime supply 5 yards for $1.00
The other part I believe is dacron. The size is important so that
the indicator will move in sync. That really doesn't need replacement
unless abused. Remember it must wind up the shaft to position the
dial in the correct spot. The elastic is only for tension.
I've never had to replace the dacron.
