Hard to find OG ones anywhere , I've found some before & they cost a fair bit more than the EAI ones but I've also bought EAI before and they're fine  ;)

hello, you simply buy one of these
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Axle-Front-Solid-M9-x-140mm-non-quick-release-/160547167405?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item25615b5cad
7 pounds ffs - they used to be 4 quid.

you run up one campy cone - the thread pitch is slightly different, push out the short quick release axle with the new-un - then fit t'other cone.

much cheaper even at 7 quid.

please note, yes you are being anal about liking the campy acorn nuts
