Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Dial faces and Decals

[Ray Keefer <Ray.Keefer@Sun.COM>]

Hi,

I did something like this with my old riding lawnmower.

The translucent film over the dash status lights (lights on, seat safety 
switch depressed,...) went missing. I xeroxed the symbols out of the 
Operators Manual and literally cut and pasted them into the correct 
sequence and spacing. Then photo copied that onto an overhead 
transparecy. Cut the whole thing out of the transparency and mounted in 
the dash.

The colors I tried to paint on the transparency didn't hold up but at 
least the symbols are there to tell me what each light is supposed to mean.

Regards,
Ray

Being a photographer I can design the gauge face (in a large original of about two feet) with an ultrafine art pen and copy it off the wall or copy stand onto medium format colour slide film.  A translucent sheet of plastic from an art supply store behind the positive (slide) and the result is a nice automotive type gauge face with pleasant light dispersion.
