Gentlemen,

I haven't had any luck with sourcing a needle for my ammeter. Tried numerous online sites as well as real people on the ground here (watchmakers etc).

If anybody has a 'scrapper' gauge (or clock) that they want to donate for a good cause or a small fee, let me know

Here's what the needle needs to look like...



A donor gauge of course doesn't need to be an ammeter, so long as the needle appearance is close enough. My gauge is a 2" Smiths, so the needle would need to be around 1" to 1-1/4" (say 25mm to 35mm for you modern metro's).

Thank you for your attention


Cheers,
Glen
