Hi,
I Posted this question on MIG, and was told to come here, as someone had already scanned their dials, and posted them up on here. Ive been searching the forums, but I cant find the templates anywhere.

The dials are going to be a Birthday present for my brother, so I cant take the dials out to scan them myself.

Thanks

Yup, then I could edit it on Photoshop, add some custom touches.

im guessing you could print them out as decals and machine either a thin metal or cut out a thin plastic base to stick the decal to.

I was going to print them out on real good photo paper, highest quality printer settings, then laminate them.

Could cut out the bits that need light through, but it would be really hard..
