I recreated the old dial just using common techniques in MS Paint. It could have been easier and better looking if I had some more advanced graphics program, but I think it turned out OK. Whaddaya think? I left some of the working artifacts on the drawing. It's redder than the scanned dial, but pictures of the dial show it more red. Now the proof of it is going to be how it might print onto the transparent sticker material I got at Staples. The white portions of the drawing will print clear on the transparency. If that works, I will sandwich it between a white translucent plastic on the back, with a cutout to reveal the dial pointer, and clear acrylic on the front.
