I recycled a Garhauer vang and a couple of wire/rope blocks into a split backstay adjuster. Essentially no cost as they were take-offs from upgrades. Been on there for about 20 years.
Gary 30-1 #593 which I presume came with the split backstay, but no adjuster.

I have a much lighter duty (much less expensive) double blocks and line on mine and it works fine.
