I have a nice big piece of stone art work that has a bi-metal

The bi-metal has died (too many 120°F day ?:-).

Anyone know where to obtain such a mechanism?

Surfing only produces complete units, not just the mechanism.

Ran onto a posted thread with similar need... NO, nada, none,
responses :-(

You might try searching some woodworking or crafts stores and look for
kits for thermometer, barometer, hygrometer stations.

Here's one:

You might hane to buy a complete unit and pul the mechanism out, but for
$8, you might not get a mechanism much cheaper.

The problem I see is that these units have a fixed degrees of rotation
per degree temp ratio. You may have trouble finding one that matches the
face of an existing instrument.
