Lathe cover plate

[sk1nner]

Hello all,

I have a Dar Sin dsl12375gh lathe. It has been sold under a bunch of names. I love the machine, just not how it looks. On the headstock there is the placard that shows all of the possible spindle speeds. Mine is quite worn. Is there anyone with the same lathe (under any of the various names) that would mind pulling the placard off and snapping a clear picture for me? My wife has a vynal cutter and she can make the new decals so I can make a new placard but she needs a good clear un-obstructed pic to do it. I have attached a pic of mine and a pic of a nice one still on a lathe. If anyone can help its greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Get someone to pull there's and scan it. Then you can clean it up on MS Paint (or your choice). I made a new plate for my mill: scanned, fixed it up, printed it on an Avery semi-transparent sticker, made a new plate - worked great.

Why? Because I accidentally cleaned all the colour off!

That's a good idea. You also did a nice job on that.
