G27 optical enconder wheel broken

Hi!

My g27 encoder wheel broke in 2 pieces. I tried super-gluing it, but one of the pins broke apart, so there's one space the size of two normal spaces, which causes me to lose the center really fast (one turn).

I was thinking of using a mouse wheel, but the wheel on my MX310 only has 48 spaces, while the wheel on the G27 has 60. Would that be much of a problem?

There is a seller who makes these wheels on brass and cuts the holes by laser, but he hasn't responded to my e-Mail yet and I think it's too expensive for me to buy.

What can I do? Is there an easy and reliable way to making a wheel myself?

Cheers!
