Well I broke down and bought a lathe. ;D
I could not bring myself to put decals in the dash gauges covered with crystal clear!
So.... the first lathe project will be to machine new gauges for the dash! I'm going to machine the full gauge body with the trim ring, then machine acrylic rod and polish it for the lenses. Going to try and layout my own gauge dials on the computer and print them. We'll see how that goes...
Here is a photo of the lathe package I bought:
I'm excited!!
