In order to fully utilize the power of a White Industries Eno fw I've concluded that I need a modern 144 BCD 3/32 chainring
Bollocks. I've 2 of them, both being run with 1/8" chains and sprockets and they run great.

I've got a bunch of old campag ones. What flavour of teeth d'you need?

@ M_V - You can totally run a 1/8 chain which is exactly what I'm doing now but there is a bit of lateral play which over time will wear down the teeth just that tiny bit more. Nothing to worry about unless you're mega anal like me.
@ svendsvin - Big, big thanks, those CNC ones look sweet and are super cheap.
@ dbr - Thanks for the offer but I think I'll try the CNC one from above and see what that's like.

Alright, little update. Big thanks to sven as I ended up buying a chainring from his suggested website cnc-bike.de. The owner of the site doesn't take PayPal or Visa but only bank transfers (I know, sounds like a scam) which seems stupid but whatever so in the end, I paid a bit more than 18 Euro. It came out to be 18 Euro for chainring + 24 for delivery (ridiculous price but to be fair, it's a quick delivery as he sent it out Monday and it's just arrived) + £10 fee from using international bank transfer by LLoyds. The chainring seems to be really nicely machined, good anodizing and very light (109g according to my scales).

Hey, I want to do exactly the same, move to 3/32 because of the white ind freewheel. How do you like the chainring you bought and on what cranks did you mount it? What chain do you use? It looks like KMC Z1 is a good fit.

Vintage road chainrings with that size and pitch are pretty easy to find on ebay, for varying prices. 144 was like the old 130 I gather.

Update on this: I had a chat in PM with @fabric and eventually I have order the same chainring that he suggested from cnc-bike.de (see picture above). I must say I wasn't disappointed. It looks well made and it's been working great so far!
In order to fully utilize the power of a White Industries Eno fw I've concluded that I need a modern 144 BCD 3/32 chainring. The only thing I could find was Blackspire who are based in 'merica so I would rather get something from within Europe.
Anyone know anything else?
