I somehow can never seem to get the pics in the proper order... but they
should be obvious which is A and which B. I think I've done a pretty decent job reproducing the destroyed dial, with my limited experience and facilities. I am, however, open to constructive criticism. |

What did you use for the dial material? Tom |

Tom The dial material(s) in this case are some dial phenolic that I bought from Mark Oppat's site which is serving as the solid back surface, and a sheet of plastic transparency with the reconstructed dial face laser printed and glued onto it with Scotch 77 spray adhesive. I do it this way because I don't have a means to print directly to the phenolic. I hope that someday I can find a way to do that, as it would make things so much easier. On the other hand, when done this way, if the dial face becomes too scratched or faded, it would be simple to print another transparency and replace it. |

You can get transfer material that can be laser printed and allow you to transfer the work without the need for glue. Tom |
