Default Re: Drawing circular log scales?

The project progresses, not quite as soon as I wished, because work made huge demands after my holiday!

I have now 'borrowed' a Windows machine, used your Galva script and printed a version of your modified log scale. I also have the piece of 2mm anodised aluminium and the photo-resist film so that I can etch the scale.

Before I commit to the final version, I'm going to use the paper print on a dummy dial and measure the output frequency against the new markings. That should prove the theory about the variation of the Bourns pot logarithmic law against a genuine logarithmic scale.

I did not think that this dial would have taken quite so long to reproduce!
