Default Re: Dial Glass Reconstruction

I've got a Grundig 3365 with a smashed tuning glass, and so I read this article in search of inspiration (which I found in spades) and maybe some pointers for how-to's and techniques. Got quite a few of those too!

Many thanks "awc".

Just a tiny problem, and I don't know if I should mention it, but I suppose I must. No-one else has commented, so either they didn't notice or there's an unspoken rule on here that I'm just about to break.....

I've spotted a bug

In the bottom right of the glass, there's a summary of the band-limits. You've got shortwave down as 6 - 10 MHz. Yet, quite obviously it's way wider than that. I reckon it should say 6 - 19 MHz. The zero that you've used to construct the "10" had most of its lower part obliterated in the scan of the original glass, and it surely must really be a "9"?

Sorry, "awb". It's a beauty of a job you've done here. If my re-glazing of my Grundig comes out anything like as good as yours has, I'll post it.
