Can anyone suggest a source for some good quality 12 string 6-on-a-plate tuners for a slothead instrument?

I'm about to start on a kind of Portuguese Guitarra/Laud/12 string guitar hybrid for a customer and I'd like to fit it with something better than usual cheap ones I can find.

When it's finished it should look something like this:

Cool Peter, that instrument will probably yield tremendous sound!

hello Mr Grey,
              Some years back Ralph Bown when making a replica Stella 12 string used 2 sets of Schaller mandoline Tuners.
He joined them together to make 6 a side.
There was a artical on Stewmac website.
     Good luck    Rick Sellens Hastings UK
PS machine heads are avaliable from Dave Dyke at Horam not far from me .
