LC2 clocks - ignition surround, anyone ever 3D printed one?

[JonW]

Looks like Im going to have to restore one of these sets of clocks... always said I hated em and would never do a set, never say 'never'... hmm...

The ignition surround on mine is totally cut off, I figure I could ask if anyone have a smashed top with a good one of these that I could canibalise, but I doubt that going to happen, so I got to wondering; has anyone ever digitised this part and remade it on a 3D printer?

I thought about cutting one off and getting it moulded but never bothered in the end

Somebody 3D printing them would be awesome

I've repaired 6 sets now using donor covers and although quite straight forward to do its difficult to find a smashed cover which has the shroud intact

Now the wind up bit:

Got some clocks to make into a set over the weekend

Top case - small repair to Rh edge but ignition shroud all there.

White inner - minimal damage at one screw, all solid, just the usual mounting post spins

Rear ok

Now the good bit - instruments

Speedo, tacho and temp from a crashed track bike. Only showing 1095km and needles still original orange, faces perfect- lovely


He lights the fuse and stands well back

Well it's not like there's a great market for km clocks over here
