Mark,
some people just twist common Teflon tape and use this as packing. I did this with my Mamod (new pistons) years ago and it is still OK. And yes, I know mentioning a Mamod in relation to an Aster is a big no-no

Mark,
McMaster has a wide selection of bronze bushings. See e.g. 6381K468 for reference. We bought these bushings to repair Eric's Falk cylinders. Loctite should be OK to keep them in place.

We both live in the Bay Area and McMaster is in L.A. We usually get stuff from them in one day. More convenient than checking local guys who usually don't have what we need anyways.
