Looking for any lugs with 1-1/4" spacing

Hello

I have an old Ludwig shell that was from the Educator series or something -basically a shallow 16" concert tom shell. I'm thinking about turning it into a bass drum that I can stuff another drum into for transport.

Ideally, I'd get 8 of the vintage small lugs, but, wouldn't ya know it....the things cost a mint, now. So, I was wondering if any of you guys might know of a cheaper alternative that would fit into the hole spacing of 1-1/4".

Thanks

Check out this site. Lots of useful info:

It looks like Leedy small beavertails are 1.25" as are Ludwig 2246 small classic lugs and the Sonor Teardrop Lug.

The Gretsch 5473 small lug is close at 1 5/16"
