White Ensign makes some photoetched open & closed (failread) chocks.   

Chcek with L'Arsenal on the bits,  I think they may have some in resin.    You have a couple of alternatives.  Fitst  is some Plastruc or Evergreen rod of the appropriate diameter, cit to length and cemented to a rectangular base-plate.  A punched disc of styrene on top of each leg of the bit represents the flare (where appropriate).  Second, with a resin ship, drill a hole at the bit location and insert a piece of brass wire.  Snip at the desired height.
