Am I remotely correct?
The first is spot-on, but I think the other two pretty much have to have some wiggle room. An AndyMark shifter isn't particularly noteworthy, but a truckload of paint rollers would probably qualify in my book.

The custom sprocket example is the same thing: a sprocket you hex broached off of McMaster won't work, but this is certainly fine.

Then again, there stands to be an exception for mass quantities of special items. Unless you're AndyMark or the NiagraFIRST Triplets, I'd say a box of fifty of those hex-broached sprockets would certainly turn heads.
