you got pics full size?

I've been wanting to do similar, but haven't gotten around to pulling apart my cluter for the sizes/template.

PM me, I can host (any size) so others can get 'em too.

The dial backing is just a plastic sheet right? Assuming you could find the right material then you might simple be able to use a regular inkjet printer to run them off, they're fairly high quality these days. Unfortunately, it's probably impossible to find black plastic sheets in a form suitable to go through an inkjet since most want transparencies.

i checked out about custom dials - i went to most printing places, and they told me where to go... so i went to a specialist printing place that did tropheys etc, and they could do the printing for me for $70 - less if i had more printed in one shot. i've a spare cluster here, but never got around to taking it any further!
