Replica Ekco A22T (A22 export model)

[Yorkie]

The effort that goes into those dials just takes my breath away, and the detailed explanation outlined above shows the true extent of just what effort and expertise is involved in creating a dial 'from a blank sheet of paper', but even to get to that stage, there's a great deal of research to be undertaken. The size has to be acurate, the stations exactly where they belong on the dial, the text needs to be in the right font and the right colour. Dials are such an important aspect of a sets appearance - none more so than the iconic Ekco A22 - in my view, by far the best circular Ekco.

Quite a task too, to calculate the winding of the short wave coils and to re-build the coil pack. Not a task for the faint-hearted!

Thanks for the write-up Robert - it's done nothing for my fragile flaky ego to see such fine work!
