I wasn't suggesting it was made for the overseas market. RCA & JVC did their own stuff.
So it's HMV in UK = EMI, rather than a grey import. JVC can't use the Nipper logo outside Japan, and RCA couldn't use it in former Victor territories that had become separated companies. RCA is now owned by Thomson.
Inkscape (vector) or Gimp (bitmap). Either can do this and both are free on Linux and Windows. Both can let you design over a background scan of the existing scale. Producing it in white is the tricky bit. I use a white thermal transfer film and use baking paper/greaseproof paper in the laser printer so the toner comes off easily if doing water slide. Printing on clear film is easier. Then and iron or laminater makes the white film stick to the toner. The film is then peeled off. I did a new scale for the Sky Emperor this way as I had the wrong kind of water slide. You'd not notice that the new glass has plastic film behind it rather than the white printed on directly.
What's the shaft dia and I'll see have I any suitable knobs?
