Orpheus Player Zither Dimensions

Now there's a coincidence!  I am in the process of re-building one
of these, which has been much enjoyed by wood-worm, and I have just
discovered that it is missing its dampers, so I am looking for
pictures and dimensions of the dampers (which are only for the lower
9 notes, I think).

I will communicate directly with Harold Draper so we can be of mutual
assistance, hopefully.  However, this one only has the short legs.
