Hi
Have been collecting reference pics of many British WW2 aircraft instruments for a while now with a view to producing some photo etch sets in various scales. Does any one have any dimensions. Daimeter of glass face would be best. Can scale every thing from that. Are the instruments like the American ones in that there seem to be a couple of standard sizes 3 1/8 inch and 2 1/2inch.
Cheers
Phil

I will get to work now. This is how the artwork ends up although the actuall parts are tiny. Hope you have a good trip.
Cheers

Here are some diameters, sorry I mixt mm & in., I’m not so easy with inches,
I’m afraid I can’t help you more for the moment, I’m too busy packing my stuff (I’m going overseas for 3 weeks).
But I’m sure some people can help you on the forum.
If not let me know, I will do my best when coming back.
Cheers, Olivier
